True. Beware of regional periodicals, like Best Lawyers in _______, or Who's Who. The attorneys, selected to appear as the best in their fields, are only there because they've paid money. These periodicals suggest that they were selected by merit. But the truth is that they have to pay to be included. That's not to say that they aren't competent, but you have to beware of the selection process.,
