How we research law firm profiles
People use Juricue to make real decisions about who will represent them, so we owe you honesty about how our profiles are built, what we check and, just as importantly, what we don't. We'd rather show you our limits than let you assume we've checked something we haven't.
Consistent standards
Every firm is held to the same standards for what we publish, how we check it and how we fix mistakes, and our methodology sets them out in full. Correction requests go to an inbox our team reads, and we look into each one.
How profiles are researched
Each profile is built from public information: the firm's own website, public business records and public review sites. We use AI-assisted research to gather and summarize it, then present every firm in the same format so you can compare them side by side.
In other words, a profile sums up what a firm says about itself, plus public records and reviews. It isn't an investigation or an audit, and it isn't based on firsthand experience of the firm.
What we don't do
This matters most, so we'll be plain about it. We don't check a firm's bar admission or standing with any state bar. We don't verify case results or client satisfaction claims. We don't interview lawyers or clients, and we don't test a firm's legal services ourselves. With hundreds of firms listed, that kind of hands-on vetting isn't something we can do, and claiming otherwise would be wrong.
Details like years in business, areas of focus or notable results come from the firm's own materials. We repeat them as the firm presents them and don't confirm them ourselves. If one of those details matters to your decision, check it with the firm or your state bar first.
The note on every profile
Every profile ends with a note that it's based on public information, mainly the firm's own website, and that details like attorneys, fees and consultation policies can change. Lawyers move on, phone numbers change and firms stop offering some services, so always confirm the details with the firm before you rely on them.
About the ratings shown
Only 67% of firms show a star rating. When you see one, it's the firm's public Google rating. We copy it from the firm's Google listing. We don't create, verify or change it, and it isn't a score from Juricue. When there's no rating, it's because we couldn't match one to the firm with confidence, and we never round up or make one up. A missing rating means just that, not a low one. How we calculate our numbers goes into more detail.
Directory and connection service
Juricue helps you find law firms and, if you'd like, our team can help you get in touch with one. We're not a law firm and we don't give legal advice. Using Juricue or asking us for help doesn't create an attorney-client relationship with us or any firm we list. A listing or introduction isn't a recommendation, or a guarantee that a firm will take your case or win it. The choice of lawyer is always yours, so check their credentials before you commit.
How we report legal news
Every news article starts from the court's own decision and docket, the law itself, and official records. We check the result against at least one independent news report, and we label anything that comes from one of the parties to a case.
We explain legal terms in plain words, say what a ruling does not decide, and date anything that can still change, such as appeal deadlines. Photos are real stock images chosen to illustrate the topic; we never present one as a picture of the actual court or event. When a case moves on after we publish, we update the article and note the change at the bottom. Our news is general information, not legal advice.
Freshness and corrections
A profile reflects what was public when we last researched the firm. We don't recheck every firm on a schedule. Instead, when you tell us something looks wrong or out of date, we check it and fix or remove it. So if you spot something, letting us know is the fastest way to get it fixed.
