California State Bar Certified

Los Angeles Lawyer Referral Service

​

The truth concerning most for profit lawyer directories or legal groups is that they're not law firms, lawyers or attorneys in the slightest degree.

​

The reality is that these for profit legal groups are advertising agencies that charge lawyers a fee to be referred personal injury cases in Los Angeles.

If you pay close attention to the barrage of TV commercials, most will use “non-attorney spokespersons” to deliver their message. 

​

They claim to have the knowledge and experience to represent victims of personal injury claims and get the best compensation by referring you to the best personal injury attorneys in Los Angeles. 

​

Within the “fine print” in the bottom of the TV commercial (which nobody might presumably can read in a few seconds), it states: “spokesperson isn't a lawyer"or that the legal group isn't a law firm or a lawyer referral service.

 

Once you dial a fancy 800-personal-injury number, your call will be answered by a call center which is in charge of collecting your personal information.  

What does this mean for someone who is genuinely looking for a competent and experienced personal injury lawyer in Los Angeles ?

​

These legal groups are not law firms or certified lawyer referral services at all. 

An organization that operates as a Los Angeles lawyer referral service MUST be approved and certified by the California State Bar pursuant to California Business and Professions Code §6155

​

The reality of these legal groups that appear to be legitimate personal injury law firms is that they are simply advertising agencies who slip the high costs of a TV commercial among hundreds of personal injury lawyers. 

​

As long as participating lawyers pay a monthly advertising fee, they will receive personal injury leads from the advertising agency. 

​

Personal injury lawyers who participate in these advertising schemes are not vetted, screened, nor monitored. As long as they pay their monthly marketing fee to the advertising agency, they will be getting leads generated by their TV ads.  

​

In other words, when you think you are being referred to a great personal injury lawyer in Los Angeles, you are not. You may ask yourself, why is it important to contact a California State Bar certified lawyer referral service in Los Angeles?

​

In 2019 alone, 124 lawyers in were disciplined in Los Angeles county were disciplined for committing unethical acts. Los Angeles was the county with the largest reports of attorney misconduct in the entire state of California. 

​

When you hire a personal injury lawyer by using these advertising agencies it's like throwing a dart at a board or flipping a coin!

​

When you contact a Los Angeles lawyer referral service, you can be sure that each attorney has been pre-screened and is always monitor for professional responsibility.
