LegalMatch Inks New Deal with Utah State Bar

LegalMatch and the Utah Bar Association begin their 5th year partnership to provide access to qualified and prescreened attorneys for Utah citizens.

San Francisco, CA and Salt Lake City, UT (PRWEB) November 13, 2008 -- LegalMatch, the nation's premier online legal matching company, and the Utah State Bar have extended their partnership for another year. LegalMatch will continue to provide the Utah State Bar with a co-branded LegalCenter that offers legal tips, a consumer law library, and resources for finding a Utah lawyer, all at no cost for the citizens of Utah. LegalMatch has been the legal matching service of choice for the Utah State Bar for over four years.

In addition to the 10 percent discount that Utah State Bar member attorneys receive on LegalMatch membership, this expanded service also extends important cost-saving benefits to all Utah State Bar member attorneys through LegalMatch's Financial Services Division. Chief among these is lower-cost credit card processing without hidden fees and access to practice financing.

"We are thrilled that the Utah State Bar continues to offer LegalMatch to Utahans seeking pre-screened attorneys in their area," says Anna Ostrovsky, Chairperson and General Counsel for LegalMatch. "Now more than ever, people need sounds avenues to get legal relief. LegalMatch and the Utah State Bar share a common vision for providing access to legal services to those who need it."

In 2004, the Utah State Bar signed an agreement to replace its traditional lawyer referral process with the LegalMatch online matching service for Utah citizens, a partnership first of its kind in the legal industry. The agreement is now in its fifth year. "LegalMatch continues to be a great resource for Utah citizens and Utah State Bar member attorneys. We look forward to a lasting and growing partnership with them," says John C. Baldwin, Executive Director, Utah State Bar.
