Generally speaking, television and radio advertisements are a bad way to find an attorney.  Many advertisements are paid for by referral agencies, which collect large numbers of calls and then divide them up between member attorneys.  Even when the advertisements are paid for by a law firm, often many of the cases are referred out to other firms who share the enormous cost of advertising.  Most of the time, the attorney with the big advertising campaign will not have an office near you. Unless your case is worth a lot of money, you may well find that you are quickly referred to a different firm or that you can’t get much attention for your case.

Online legal directories are the best alternative to finding an attorney that would most likely suit your needs.  However, users eager to find Spanish speaking lawyers and law firms dedicated to serving the Latino community, may find this task to be overwhelming.  The internet is flooded with directories, many of which can’t filter information or inquiries unique to the needs of the Latino community.
