Operation

LegalMatch assists people who need to find an attorney for their legal problems, including family law, criminal law, real estate, bankruptcy, personal injury, immigration, and intellectual property. LegalMatch charges attorneys membership fees to participate in the service and the lawyer search is free to users.

Clients answer questions online at the LegalMatch website to identify the type of service required, and relevant lawyers are notified. Later, the client is able to review responses from lawyers in order to decide which lawyer, if any, to contact.

FTC and State Bar Opinions On LegalMatch

There has been some controversy over whether LegalMatch is permitted to operate as an Online Attorney-Client Matching Service. To date, the State Bars of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Texas as well as the Rhode Island Supreme Court Ethics Advisory Panel and the Supreme Court of Ohio each have each announced favorable opinions on the use of LegalMatch within their jurisdictions.

In 2003, Utah replaced their traditional lawyer referral operation with LegalMatch's Online Attorney-Client Matching for Utah citizens.

The FTC also favorably ruled for Online Legal Matching Services, which they found help consumers find legal representation, and have the potential to lower the costs of obtaining information about the price and quality of legal services.

Casepost

In 2004, Dmitry Shubov, the founder and then CEO of LegalMatch, pleaded guilty to illegally accessing the voicemail system of a competitor, Casepost, and was subsequently fined $5000, sentenced to two years probation and disbarred. LegalMatch and CasePost then settled their fight and issued a joint press release to that effect. As he was indicted, Shubov resigned as CEO in May 2004.
