How the Referral Service Works

When you contact us, you will be asked to provide basic information about your legal situation. Our referral counselors are trained to evaluate your situation and find the right lawyer for your needs. Once we have found an attorney with relevant experience who is interested in speaking with you (usually within 2-3 business days), we will contact you and provide you with the attorney’s information. There is a non-refundable $30 fee for the referral, which entitles you to a free telephone or office consultation of up to 30 minutes.
