Post I found out A-dad was attorney, how do I...

So in my search, out of the little bit of non-id info I was able to get, I discovered that my brother's adopted father as an attorney! I know this is good news because there's all sorts of paperwork for attorneys! I know what year he was born, too, but no more than that. Just his physical description and heritage.

Anyone have any ideas where to start? I've been told the last name is "not as common as Smith or Jones or Brown but not a weird one". Gee, thanks. I mean, any bit of info is helpful to some extent, though. I won't look a gift horse in the mouth. But still, I wish I knew where to go from here!

Does anyone know what to look for? Any way of referencing an attorney by their birth year? I know it's a stretch but anything's worth a try at this point!

Thanks everyone! I eagerly await replies!!!

Update: 3/14/08 Happy Birthday to me, got a letter from LA Cty Adoptions re: non-id! Hopefully by the end of the week I'll have it!

Update: 5/5/08 Found out A-dad was an attorney born in 1937. They applied to LA County adoptions in May 1970 for a second adoption which resulted (a couple years later) in getting my brother. Where do I look now??

Update: 5/19/08 I have his adopted name! I even have addresses and phone numbers, some of which MAY or may not be current, but when I contacted the A-dad he said he "doesn't remember adopting any children in 1972..." but grilled me about who I was, who our mother was, my brother's name, and then repeated his convenient memory loss and wished me good day. So close... and yet SO far...
