Where do I start? I need to find an intellectual property / entertaiment attorney?

irina p asked:


I am an entertainment personality known as The Russian Queen of Balloons. I am a popular live performance artist. My blog: http://mylifeandart.typepad.com

I twist balloon art live during events. You can read media articles about me on the left side of my page under ‘Press Coverage’ (click on the blue links, each is a press story)

I want to find an intellectual property (entertainment) attorney who would advise me on how I can leverage my brand, buy prescription drugs without a prescription The Russian Queen of Balloons, and cross over into: 1) product development under my brand name and/or endorsement of a product or service; and/or licensing of my name and personality.

What are the ways that I can use to find an honest, well-connected intellectual property / entertainment attorney?
