Join the Lawyer Referral Service - Be a part of a nationwide service!

Ventura County Bar Association is working for you…

Join the LRIS Panel

Our ABA accreditation and State Bar certification (#0059) lend credibility and clients referred through the service are more comfortable knowing they receive a reliable referral through an established service. The VCBA LRIS has been serving residents since 1959 and is a community-based program which serves as a conduit, connecting the public by placing them in touch with qualified and experienced lawyers specializing in various areas of the law. The LRIS can help you build your practice and provide a public service at the same time. Members of the LRIS appreciate the pre-screened referrals enabling them to save time and money. The extensive marketing efforts of LRIS work to an attorney’s advantage by bringing more calls to our phone lines and a greater number of clients for referral to LRIS members.

By participating on LRIS panels you contribute to VCBA’s public service programs such as:

Since 1977, Court Tour Program for
middle school and high school students
Since 2002, County
Mock Trials Competition

Since 2022, Groups of legal professionals provide free legal presentations for the ASK program in the community.
