I appreciate work of authors who write clearly on criminal law issues. People need I information on criminal defense to protect their freedom, incomes and lives. That is why I always read your blog with great attention. I think, you could write several legal articles to Attorney Online. Hope, this will help to promote your legal services. One more option is to submit your contacts to Attorney directory. I invite there good lawyers in different practice areas. For example, look at the category with Tennessee criminal attorneys. I think, that you and some your friends could be listed there.
