The American Bar Association is a highly respected national organization of attorneys. The American Bar Association sets standards for Lawyer Referral Services to ensure that clients who use those Lawyer Referral Services are receiving the highest quality representation possible.
What are the ABA Minimum Standards?
Lawyer Referral Services that meet the American Bar Association Minimum Standards screen their lawyers for experience in different areas of law. In addition, when a Lawyer Referral Service meets the American Bar Association's Standards it means that the Lawyer Referral Service requires that their attorneys be insured (or to show proof of financial responsibility) and that the Lawyer Referral Service have a procedure in place to suspend or remove attorneys if necessary.
A Lawyer Referral Service which meets American Bar Association Minimum Standards carefully screens its lawyers, and will address your complaint if there is ever a dispute between you and your lawyer.
