Who We Are

State Bar Certified Lawyer Referral Services are for people seeking to hire a private attorney. These are not free services. These referral services typically charge a small amount for a brief consultation call, where you will be connected with an attorney that could be a good match for your situation.

At that consultation, you can find out what you should do next, whether the private lawyer may take your case, how much services will cost, and the strength of your case. 

You can find more information on what to expect from your first meeting here: https://www.calbar.ca.gov/Public/Free-Legal-Information/Before-Selecting-an-Attorney/Your-Initial-Consultation

Description of Services

A person needing legal assistance calls the LRS and describes to the intake administrator the nature of his or her problem. The intake staff is trained to determine whether legal or non-legal assistance best suits the needs of the caller. If legal assistance is required, the person is then referred to a lawyer experienced in the necessary field of law for a 30 minute initial consultation. If further legal services are needed, a fee arrangement is made directly between the person and the lawyer.
