Lexica vs Martindale-Hubbell

The short version

If you're selling specifically to law firms and attorneys, Lexica delivers more accurate, more targeted contact data than generic B2B databases. We source from state bar records, segment by 14+ practice areas, and verify every attorney's license status. Generic tools can't do any of this.

Accuracy

Lexica starts with state bar association records, the authoritative source for every licensed attorney. We cross-reference against court records, business filings, and firm directories. The result is data verified against the same records that state regulators use.

Generic databases rely on web scraping, email signatures, and crowdsourced data. For tech companies with large online footprints, this works. For law firms, the accuracy drops significantly.

Practice area segmentation

Lexica segments by 14 major practice areas and 15+ subcategories. Corporate, litigation, IP, real estate, employment, PI, criminal defense, family, bankruptcy, immigration, tax, environmental, healthcare, and insurance defense.

Generic tools classify all legal businesses under a handful of industry codes. There's no distinction between a corporate M&A firm and a personal injury practice.

Pricing

Lexica charges $0.50-$1.50 per record on a per-project basis. No annual contract. No seat licenses. A list of 1,000 bar-verified attorneys costs $500-$1,500, delivered in 3-5 days.

When to use Lexica

If you sell specifically to law firms and attorneys. If you need bar-verified contacts segmented by practice area. If you want accurate data without an annual contract. If you'd rather spend your budget on data quality than platform access.
