Lawyer Referral Service in Sonoma County

The Sonoma County Bar Association sponsors a Lawyer Referral Service. This community based non-profit service is certified by the State Bar of California, Certificate 0056, to help the public find a qualified attorney throughout Sonoma County and the Santa Rosa metropolitan area.

More than 60 attorneys serve on the panel. Attorneys on the panel are experienced in one of 16 different legal fields including:

• personal injury
• workers' compensation
• criminal law
• immigration law
• family law
• real estate

Attorneys on the panel are in good standing of the California Bar, have malpractice insurance, and demonstrate experience in their respective field of law.

When you call the service, a referral counselor on staff will talk with you about the legal issue to determine the type of law involved and the type of attorney needed. The service will then refer you to a qualified attorney.

You must pay a $50 administrative fee to the service. The fee is waived for a personal injury, Social Security appeal, or Worker’s Compensation claim. You can then contact that attorney for a free consultation to discuss the case.
