But, so many people have negative opinions of lawyers they don't know what is even possible, or where problems are likely. In previous discussions on this issue, nobody ever said that an injunction is even possible, so everyone forgets that they have a copyright and that it isn't just a matter of getting paid.

I certainly did not have any intention of insulting you. If I did I
apologize.
The best way of finding a competent lawyer is to get a recommendation
from someone whose opinion you trust. You might want to check your local
bar association for references. Also, there is a publication called
Martindale-Hubbell, which in addition to providing legal information,
rates lawyers. The highest rating is AV.
