In recent past time I’ve come to work with several lawyers, some of which were freelancers. I’ve noticed some trend in the way the work. This is what I saw.

1. Almost none of them have a personal website. However, all of them have several email accounts.
2. They move a lot. Inside the city mostly, but also on the road.
3. They never get too all-terrain.Their environment is always somewhat safe.
4. They need to get every call.

So what I think they need is:

1. Good reception, it has to be the best there is
2. Car integration, bluetooth almost mandatory
3. Medium size. Bulky is never good.

So in this case I’m going to recommend the Moto Krzr K1 that you can get from $175

But, and this is a big but, if you want to do things right, you need a push mail system, to get your emails right away, In this case you’ll want to go in the blackberry direction and the Pearl’s form factor is your best choice there. You’ll be spending a little bit more for the phone and a lot more for the service, but trust me it is the way to go.
