I look at it like one should find the best criminal defense attorney you can afford, and he can deal with any 2A aspects. That is better than finding an attorney who specializes in 2A issues but is not the best criminal defense attorney around. It is a question of priorities.

Also, there is going to be a short list of names in any large city or county that people recognize as the best defense attorney's in town. Someone who creates the "Oh crap, we're facing . . . . " reaction by prosecuting attorney. There is going to be a short list in each city that are widely respected as the top dogs in the junkyard, and that is not limited to 2A issues.

Part of being the top dog is knowing all the local courts and prosecutors. That aspect of the attorney's practice is much more valuable than most people realize, and is an important part of knowing how to work the system.
