What You Should Consider When Thinking of Attorney Matching Services

Attorney matching services are a recent phenomenon in the world of finding an attorney online. The big three of these services are Legalmatch, Findlaw, and Legalfish. These services allow a potential client to post their case into the matching service. Depending on your local area, these services will then show your case to several attorneys who may post a response.

One considerable advantage of these services is that they allow participants to state the level of privacy that they desire. It's up to the users if they want to show their contact information to any attorney that reads their case or if they want to see if the attorney can present a credible review or action plan before revealing their information.

In addition, all these services perform a prescreening of the attorneys involved. Don't be overly impressed by this; however, remember these services are all primarily designed as marketing. It's a nice small side benefit, but ultimately you're going to have to rely on your instincts and good judgment in selecting an attorney. These services do generally require a minimal malpractice insurance level and check to make sure there isn't an excessive level of complaints with the attorney registration entity or bar association. If you are concerned with either of these, then it's not a bad practice to inquire of any attorney that you are considering.

The attorneys who respond pay a fee of several to tens of thousands of dollars read your case and tell you their response. One upshot is that since an attorney who responds pays a considerable fee that attorney would likely have a sincere and legitimate interest in your case's area of practice. It's a common marketing strategy to claim an expertise in virtually any practice area. However, when an attorney spends a considerable sum on marketing focused on one practice area, then they will naturally develop an actual expertise in that area.

In addition, by responding you can quickly garner information that the attorney needs work and is available for your case. This really is a slow low pressure way to find an attorney. You will also save a lot of money on consultation fees when you have a more complicated case requiring a more detailed analysis of potential representation.

The downside can also be that it can take time for an attorney to respond. In addition, the high fees mean there will not be a large number of responding attorneys. A tip on these services can be to send a message to the attorney to call you once you receive their response. This lets the attorney know you're a good prospect and have thoughtfully read the lawyer's response.

Overall, for more complex cases, these can be an excellent service for both attorneys and consumers. Contested family law cases, especially, can be an excellent choice for these services with a very high level complexity, frequent out of area cases, and a need for an attorney who really takes on a number of the cases of that type. The least productive areas would be bankruptcy or real estate closings where the essential elements of the case do not require much in the way of specialized consultations and can be easily price shopped without the need for an in-person consultation.
