How do I find an attorney?

Finding an attorney can be an intimidating process. Fortunately, in California, there are many resources available to help you locate and choose an attorney. The State Bar of California maintains a "Find a Lawyer" online directory that allows you to search for attorneys by location, practice area, and language. You can use the directory to view profiles of attorneys and contact them directly. The County Bar Association in the county you reside in can also provide assistance in finding an attorney. The County Bar Association may offer information on local attorneys who practice in the area you need assistance in. Additionally, many County Bar Associations have lawyer referral services that can connect you with an attorney. There are also local legal services offices and clinics that provide referral services if you cannot afford an attorney. In addition, there may be organizations such as religious or civic groups that have legal referral services that may help you locate an attorney. Finally, you can reach out to friends and family to ask for personal referrals or talk to colleagues or business contacts who may have had experience with an attorney in the area you need assistance in. References from people you know can be helpful in finding an attorney you can trust.
