Attorney conduct and disciplineUsing the registry
Do you vet or review the attorneys listed here?
No, and deliberately not. Every attorney on The State Bar of California's roll is listed, 278,688 records, 202,146 of them active, because a licence is a public fact. The registry does not screen, score, review or endorse anyone, and it carries no reviews.
A verification marker means one thing only: the record was checked against the official roll. It is a statement about the record, not about the person's work.
Listing everybody is what makes the directory neutral. A site that chose who deserved to appear would be making a judgement on your behalf, which is exactly what this one refuses to do.
