TURNING THE PAGE: The new BC Legal Directory

After 30 years in print, BC Legal Directory became 100% online in 2018, with new features, improved navigation, and opportunities to profile your organization.

FEATURES

Accessibility

In early 2018, the BC Legal Directory opened to the public — removing the need to login or purchase a subscription to access this information. The Directory was optimized for mobile devices.

Find-A-Lawyer Profiles

All practising lawyers in BC are invited to enjoy a free Basic Profile. As a membership benefit at no extra cost, CBABC members can have an Enhanced Profile featuring a photo, biography and unlimited areas of practice. Non-members can upgrade to an Enhanced Profile for $175 annually.

Discoverability

Lawyer profiles are searchable by name, location, and language(s) spoken. Search by area(s) of practice, greatly increasing your reach to potential clients and referring lawyers.

Easy to Maintain

BC Legal Directory can be updated any time, so you can keep your profile current and accurate, all year long.  Anyone can opt-in or opt-out at any time. Visit our Update section for instructions.

The CBABC Print Directory had been a valuable resource to BC’s legal community for thirty years. However, demand for the print version declined steadily, while use of the online version increased.

With the launch of CBA National’s Find-a-Lawyer tool, we could offer a significantly enhanced online experience, ensuring that the Directory would be accessible to all users from any device, easy to use, and cost-effective to maintain.

Our last print directory was the 2017 edition and we have a limited number of them still available. Please contact orders@cbabc.org for more information.

Digital display advertisements are available throughout the new Directory, creating wonderful opportunities to expand your brand’s exposure to the legal profession. As well, companies that provide services specifically to the legal profession are invited to profile their business in the Professional Services section for an annual fee.
