LegalMatch Launches Online Service in Spanish
The best way to find a lawyer is now available in Spanish
San Francisco CA (May 22, 2008) San Francisco (PRWEB) May 22, 2008 -- Today, LegalMatch - the nation's leading online legal matching service - begins providing Spanish language access for Hispanic consumers and businesses seeking legal representation. Located at spanish.legalmatch.com, this new Spanish language service provides both in depth legal information and LegalMatch's consumer friendly lawyer matching.
"We are very excited about the launch of our service in Spanish," said LegalMatch's CEO, Laurie Ziffrin. "Spanish is the primary language for about 15% of all US residents. LegalMatch is proud to make its lawyer finding service available to this historically underserved group."
"Finding the right lawyer in the United States is difficult enough if you speak English and know something about the law," said Anna Ostrovsky, General Counsel and co-founder of LegalMatch. "If you are not familiar with the United States legal system, and don't speak English, it's even harder. We created LegalMatch to empower consumers seeking the right attorney for their legal needs. Making LegalMatch available in Spanish was a logical next move for us."
LegalMatch member attorneys have also requested that LegalMatch make its service available in Spanish. "LegalMatch has been integral to the success of our practice for eight years" said immigration attorney Mazyar Hedayat. "With this commitment to the Spanish-speaking community, LegalMatch has again proven itself an indispensable partner in our client-relations strategy."
