How do you shop around for a lawyer without compromising your potential case?
A friend of mine just told me that revealing my case to alot of different lawyers may come back to haunt me if the case goes to trial…
So how do I shop my case around for the best lawyer without hurting my case in the long run?

By shopping around do you mean price?? I would just state the issue of the case w/o giving any details .. say.. its a dispute over property, or its a drunk driving case. Dont go into detail when talking to the attorneys until you pick one.
Any lawyer that you consult has to keep the information confidential due to the atty-client privilege. The problem comes in you re-telling your story many times, especially after lawyers have asked you questions. If you self-select information to give to your attorney you could miss something important too.
Best thing to do is look at their websites. I don’t think it will come back to haunt you though. If you are looking for a ton of lawyer websites just pop into http://www.targetlaw.com.
