For lawyers, this increases the need to have an effective Internet presence.

Effective does not just mean ranking at the top of Google. Can these folks pick up on your talent, intellect, and your legal philosophy? Can they see other folks citing what you're saying? Can they see your growing network via LinkedIn and other social media?
