Thousands of people reach out to the ACBA each year looking for a referral to an attorney, and it’s through the Lawyer Referral Service that the ACBA facilitates these referrals.
Curious about joining the LRS but want to give it a test drive first? The ACBA now offers a six-month trial deal; rather than signing up for a year at the standard $300 rate, attorneys can sign up for six months for $175. After those six months are up, attorneys can join for a year at the regular price or simply walk away.
Panel attorneys agree to give the potential client a free 30-minute consultation. If it’s a fit, the client then hires the attorney at their regular rate, and the attorney agrees to pay the ACBA a 15 percent referral fee. The LRS generates hundreds of lucrative referrals per year back to ACBA members. For more, contact attorney Whitney Hughes, Director of the ACBA Lawyer Referral Service, at whughes@acba.org.
