You can check with your local bar association, or you can go to www.martindale.com, it has a directory of US attorneys, and there are search features. Some attorneys even have ratings, as well as a specialty listing.
You will have to call and ask what they charge. Either that or get a referral from a friend. Some attorneys will give you a free consultation. Good luck to you.

Find one that specializes in that particular area, go interview him (after all, you are hiring him and he is working for you), and during that time, ask him about the kinds of cases he has handled in the past that are similar to yours and what his success rate is.
It's no different than hiring any other employee. After all, he will be WORKING for you, and you will be paying him his SALARY.

Find one and ask them what they specialize in and how much it costs.
