is it a first hearing or an appeal? you could use an atty on
an appeal, but you might not need one for a first hearing....

if you want an attorney, call your local county "bar
association." they keep a list of local attorneys who do what
you need.

but what's the issue about "clearing your name"? generally,
the only issue for unemployment hearings is if you were
(1) "fired for cause" (or voluntarily quit without good
cause) or (2) involuntarily terminated. if it's (2), you get
unemployment benefits.

good luck.
