Online Lawyer Referral Services in Clark County
Clients seeking an online attorney referral service for Clark County have many options. Online lawyer referral services include AttorneyPages, American Lawyer Referral, Lawyers.com, AttorneyGuide, Nationwide Legal Help and LegalMatch. These lawyer referral services differ regarding cost, turn around time, attorney information given, satisfaction guarantees, background checks, benefits offered, and other comparative points.
Attorney Pages and American Lawyer Referral are the least expansive of the referral service options. Sites such as Attorney Pages and American Lawyer Referral are standard "database" search sites. "Database" sites request you to input your location and legal area in order for them to provide a list of attorneys that fit that limited criteria. Only the attorneys' contact information is provided; further information about the attorneys will have to be acquired by asking the attorney directly during the initial consultation. Additionally, the site does not specify any requirements that the attorneys must fulfill before joining or any satisfaction guarantees.
Lawyers.com and AttorneyGuide are similar to Attorney Pages and American Lawyer Referral except that Lawyers.com and AttorneyGuide provide some additional information. The information is still limited, however, and it is really no more than a brief statement describing the Las Vegas area firm or attorney. The information can be helpful but is still incomplete; the client will have to do further research before they decide on which attorney to hire.
Nationwide Legal Help differs from the other lawyer referral services in Clark County with the benefits it offers. Nationwide Legal Help attorneys agree to review up to 3 pages of documents from referred clients and write a letter on their behalf. The service costs a non-refundable $35 per referral, and the attorneys agree to reduce their standard fee by 20%. However, Nationwide Legal Help only provides one referral per fee and it is given on a "next-on-list" basis. Additionally, one is expected to wait 3 business days for a referral where most other referral services will take a maximum of 1 business day.
LegalMatch is completely different from the other attorney referral services in Clark County. LegalMatch's input criteria is designed by attorneys and is more extensive than the standard location and legal area requirements. LegalMatch is a double-blind system so the attorneys can take a look at the input criteria directly and gauge their interest before agreeing to take the case. Interested attorneys will contact the client and LegalMatch will supplement the responses with expansive data, including the attorney's education and previous legal experience. In most cases, the client receives several responses from interested attorneys. LegalMatch is fast, free and without obligation. LegalMatch also carries its unique satisfaction guarantee.
