Initially I was given a good referral.I live in California and needed an estate lawyer to handle my mother s estate. Unfortunately I had to find a second attorney and that referral was a waste, in fact in trying to retain one of the lawyers they referred, I was strung along for months. When I had finally had enough of him, I went back for another referral and was told that they had given all the referrals they could give and were not responsible for the referral. While I understand the limit to referrals, I do not understand how they could refer such a poor unprofessional lawyer like the one I got. Be warned, even after being referred research the referral, I didn t and it cost me financially. You would think you can trust a Bar Association but don t.
