Answer:

d. credence

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that Susan’s hiring of the attorney is best described as a credence purchase. This type of purchase refers to a good or service that whose quality cannot be observed after making the purchase, thus the utility cannot be assessed. Which in this scenario since Susan has never hired a local attorney before she does not really know if what she is getting for her money is actually good.
