does anyone know of a good lawyer (for life insurance issue) in the DFW/Sherman area?
 

MIL has had an attorney working on the case for a year and a half with no progress and he is horrible with communication. She is now looking for a different attorney but we don't know how to find a good one.

I'm in Sherman :). It depends on the type of case - civil, criminal, family, social security/disability, etc. DH is an attorney and I can ask him what firm/lawyer is best for your MILs situation. A PM might be best for that.
