What is a Lawyer Referral Service (LRS)? A certified lawyer referral service is a program that connects members of the public with qualified attorneys. All services listed here are certified by the State Bar of California.
How do they work? Most referral services will assess your legal needs and match you with an attorney who practices in the relevant area of law. Many offer initial consultations at reduced rates.
Are they free? Some services are free, while others may charge a small referral fee. The initial consultation fee and attorney rates vary by service. Check with each service for their specific fees and policies.
Difference from LDAs: Unlike Licensed Document Assistants (LDAs) who prepare documents, lawyer referral services connect you with licensed attorneys who can provide legal advice and representation.
