FindLaw Lawyer Scraper

Pull US attorney and law-firm profiles from the FindLaw legal directory at scale — names, firms, addresses, phones, websites, practice areas, credentials, and client reviews with sentiment. Built for legal marketers, legal-services lead-gen teams, legal recruiters, and competitive-research analysts who need structured lawyer and firm data — with credentials and client sentiment — without copying it out of the directory by hand.

Why This Scraper?

• 50 US states plus DC, across 18 practice areas — sweep family law, criminal defense, personal injury, bankruptcy, immigration, estate planning, DUI & DWI, and 11 more, in any state you choose or all of them at once.
• Attorneys and law firms in one pass — every row is tagged profileType (attorney vs firm), and firm profiles expand into their individual attorney rosters so you capture the whole practice, not just the letterhead.
• Full credentials on every profile — bar admissions with year, law-school education, year first licensed, professional associations, and awards, read straight from each profile's structured data.
• Client reviews with sentiment themes — opt in to pull up to 100 reviews per profile inline: reviewer name, star rating, date, full review text, and FindLaw's sentiment themes (e.g. "Responsive", "Knowledgeable").
• Free-consultation flag and languages spoken — build lists of attorneys who offer a free consult or speak a specific language, both captured per profile.
• Clean contact block per firm — firm name, full street address (city, state, ZIP), phone, and the firm's own website, with directory and social links filtered out so website is the real site.
• Free-text search built in — resolve queries like "personal injury attorney, Miami FL" directly into results, or paste specific FindLaw profile URLs — no hand-built directory links required.
• Ratings and review summaries on every row — each profile carries its rating, review count, and average stars even when you skip the full review text.
• One clean row per profile — reviews nest inside the profile row, so your dataset stays one row per lawyer and you never pay per review.

Input Reference

What to Scrape

Use any combination — empty fields are ignored, and at least one input must yield work.

Tips for Best Results

• Sample before you sweep — set maxResults to 25–50 on your first run to confirm the data fits your needs, then scale up.
• Narrow both filters for niche targeting — every selected state × practice-area combination is swept in turn, so a tight selection (one state, one area) returns your sample faster than an all-states sweep.
• Keep reviews off for pure contact data — the review summary (reviewCount + averageReviewRating) is always included, so leave includeReviews off unless you need the actual review text, which adds run time.
• maxReviewsPerProfile only bites when reviews are on — set it to 0 to pull every review a profile has, or a number 1–100 to cap high-volume firms (some prominent firms carry 70+ reviews).
• Use free-text search for city-level aim — a query like "estate planning attorney, Scottsdale AZ" targets a single city when a state-wide sweep would be too broad.
• Paste URLs for exact shortlists — profiles listed in profileUrls are fetched exactly as given, with no roster or directory expansion, so you get precisely those profiles and nothing extra.
• Filter downstream on freeConsultation and languages — both populate per profile, making them powerful post-run filters for highly targeted outreach.

Pricing

From $2.00 per 1,000 results — flat, predictable pay-per-result pricing for structured attorney and firm data. Bronze, Silver, and Gold subscribers pay progressively less; the table below shows total cost at each discount tier.

Results	No discount	Bronze	Silver	Gold
100	$0.24	$0.23	$0.21	$0.20
1,000	$2.40	$2.25	$2.10	$2.00
10,000	$24.00	$22.50	$21.00	$20.00
100,000	$240.00	$225.00	$210.00	$200.00

A "result" is one profile row in the output dataset — client reviews are nested inside that row, so there is no per-review charge. No compute or time-based charges — you pay per result, plus a small fixed per-run start fee.
