Help people find legal representation
Create a directory of lawyers, law firms, and legal services. Connect people with the right attorney for their case.
What is a legal services directory?
A legal services directory is a website that lists lawyers and law firms, with each one's practice areas, location and contact details, so people can find an attorney for their case in one place.
How do I start a legal services directory?
Choose what it will cover (a niche, a place or both), collect a first set of lawyers and firms, and publish them on a site where people can search and compare them. On DirectoryDuck you sign up free, add lawyers and firms from a CSV file or let AI discovery find matches on the web for you to approve, and publish them at directoryduck.com/your-name.

You can start for $0: the Free plan includes one directory at directoryduck.com/your-name, 100 listings and 100 starter credits for AI discovery. Featured listings and your own domain start on Starter at $39/mo; Growth is $99/mo (5 directories) and Pro $249/mo (unlimited directories and listings). Paid plans are available now, billed monthly or yearly.

On Starter and up the hosted page can also run on your own domain.
- How do reviews work in a legal services directory?

- Can I mark lawyers and firms as verified?
- Yes. Verify a listing with a code sent to its email address, a meta tag on its website or a DNS TXT record, or approve it by hand. Verified listings show a Verified badge in your directory and in the badge widget. A business can also claim its listing: it confirms its email address, and you approve the claim.
