Nolo.com Reviews

  • Apr 23, 2018

Nolo is a long established company. Originally they were Nolo Self-Help Counsel Press, publishers of guides for do-it-yourself legal situations like wills, divorce, real-estate, etc. Years back I purchased some of their guides for an overview of what I'd be getting into. However, I believe that involving ones-self in a legal situation without competent advice is sheer idiocy. Nolo has shortened its name and broadened its scope to include legal referrals. This section of their site offers a free consultation from one of their members. Needing some advice about how to do a real-estate transfer, I sent them an outline of the situation. I received a prompt phone reply from one of their registrees. His entire free advice was "Send us a $300 retainer." When I emailed Nolo with a complaint, their response was: Thank you for contacting us. We actually don't deal with the lawyer directory, we can give you a number to call if you would like to speak with someone directly. Sounds like they don't care what what their suppliers do.

I used Nolo before for advertising for Bankruptcy, we lost money TWICE.

The way it works is NOLO shares leads with other attorneys so it is first come first serve, so many times before you even call a lead, another attorney has called and set up an appointment. The sales person we signed up with made all these promises that NOLO has changed, the representative that we worked with does not work there anymore, the salesperson said there are all these leads and they don't have enough attorneys to fill them, this is the line I was given. Why I fell prey to NOLO again, I am still baffled about it.

Why NOT to Hire Nolo

Most of the leads are poor quality, either they are spam, picking your brain, have no intentions on hiring an attorney, want to do it themselves, make appointments and never show up, or just have no money to afford an attorney.

You are one of a few attorneys who receives the lead

When you receive spam leads, you have to be quick about getting credits, it is another accounting task and takes more time away from you generating business.

Read your contract NO REFUNDS, they will hold you to the contract no matter how dissatisfied you are.

Waste of valuable time, time calling bad leads, time emailing bad leads, time setting up appointments for bad leads and time wasted for no shows.

I looked up all the leads we received with other attorneys to see if the leads did retain a Bankruptcy Attorney and filed Bankruptcy and most did not that clearly in my opinion is a good indicator that they are mostly bad leads.

With NOLO think about it, you spent countless hours chasing down leads, some are completely bogus, most are just calling to pick your brain, very few hire you, just think of how much time you have wasted when you could put your time generating leads that are NOT SHARED.

There will be no third time for me, shame on me for even considering them a second time.
