Lawyer Referral Services

To better facilitate the lawyer referral intake process for your matter please download and complete this LAWYER REFERRAL REQUEST FORM, a .pdf file. Send the completed form to us by email at ncalegal@calawyersforthearts.org for Northern CA, or karala.jenkins-turner@calawyersforthearts.org
 for Southern CA. A representative of C.L.A.'s referral services will contact you to discuss your referral request. The Legal Referral Service of California Lawyers for the Arts [C.L.A.] operates as a lawyer referral service under the authority of the State Bar of California. We use our informational resources to match only creative artists, arts organizations and others in the California arts community with lawyers who have a special interest and the necessary expertise to work with those clients.

For an administrative fee of $35 ($20 for C.L.A. members), the Legal Referral Service provides the client with a 30 minute initial consultation with an attorney who is familiar with the specific legal issues that the client is confronting. That consultation may take the form of a face-to-face meeting or telephone conversation, if convenient for the client. Legal Referral staff can sign you up for membership during your intake interview and give you the members' referral price immediately, if you choose.
