Legal Referral Services
75 percent of Americans choose an attorney by asking a friend or family member for a name and number. The results are disturbing – less than 35 percent are satisfied, after the fact, with the services their attorney provided.
Knowing you need an attorney is one thing. Finding the best legal representation for your situation and feeling good about the results is something quite different.
Your Legal Resource goes beyond the casual “I know an attorney” referral. We give you much more than an impersonal, online list of names and numbers to wade through when you need help with business, real estate, probate, personal injury or family law.
Taking the time to understand your case, your personality, and your financial situation, we match you with one or more of the select attorneys we know and trust, and whom we believe will be a good “fit” for you personally and professionally. When you need a legal professional with a proven track record of being ethical, respectful, and skilled in their specialty, Contact Us.
Attorney Lori T. Williams – the “legal matchmaker” behind Your Legal Resource – heads a network of caring, understanding, and responsive lawyers practicing in a variety of disciplines throughout the metro Detroit area.
Our services are free to the general public. There is never a charge for a referral to members of our legal network.
"DREAM TEAM" SERVICES FOR BUSINESSES
Most startups encounter the “chicken or egg” dilemma. Which comes first: funding to hire the necessary experts, or the necessary experts to add value to the business model in order to secure funding?
The companies and individuals we’ve worked with found the latter to be true.
Your Legal Resource helps build business “dream teams” for entrepreneurs and small businesses with a big idea, yet limited resources. Teams often include attorneys, CPA’s, contract CFO’s, business managers, business consultants, business plan writers, marketing professionals, and various funding sources.
They are people we’ve known for years – people we’ve hired ourselves, served with on committees, or worked with professionally.
Contact Us if you need additional resources to get your "great idea" off the ground. We'd love to help!
Entrepreneurial / Investor Referral Services
Entrepreneurs, small business owners and start-up businesses that don’t qualify for bank loans frequently turn to Your Legal Resource for connections to Angel Investors, Venture Capitalists, Private Equity firms and other financiers.
Those same Investors contact us to learn about entrepreneurial ideas, business expansions, or start-ups that seek funding.
Your Legal Resource provides introductions between reputable investors and entrepreneurs meeting basic qualifications.
Entrepreneurs should come to the table with a well-defined business plan, executive summary, clearly stated funding requirements, and a breakdown of fund allocation. Most investors expect to double their investment in your company as Return on Investment. Options are negotiated between the entrepreneur and the investor, and may include equity interest, stock, debt, or other means.
Your Legal Resource is not a broker-dealer. We act solely as a connection point for entrepreneurs and investors. The entrepreneur pays us on a consulting fee basis. For more information, Contact Us.
