Two years ago, we made very dramatic changes to LawCrossing. We are continually making changes to our programs and website to improve our clients' experiences. Our customer service now is fantastic, and if you give us a chance, we can show you. We changed our employer job posting platform as well, and we are getting fantastic responses for all legal jobs. I deal personally with our employers regularly and know they would provide positive feedback. We are not just job aggregation, but we also have employers who post jobs with us bringing all legal jobs from across the internet and other sources. This makes us the most comprehensive legal job board you will find, which is why there is a fee. I would challenge anyone that has not tried LawCrossing recently, to give us a try. We will be happy to offer a free month of service for anyone willing to take this opportunity to see how we have changed. You may also call me regarding any questions about this feed directly at 626-243-9365.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5452025352696285200.post-55498098012698235662013-11-22T13:58:42.159-05:002013-11-22T13:58:42.159-05:00I find the list of law schools interesting.

Several years ago I found a job using lawcrossing with a Caribbean law firm. There is no way I would have found that job otherwise. Is it worth the cost? I have no idea - I guess it depends on how desperate you are. I use Indeed.com regularly and I have never gotten an interview via it either - so what does that prove? <br /><br />If you credit card keeps getting charged, then call your credit card company and complain. I never had an ssue canceling my service.

I chose a subscription option of one month service since it is impossible to get free try unless choose an option and provide credit card information. However, I was charged again later for a second transaction. I did not renew or use their service after the period of one month subscription. <br />I then tried to call them to inquire what was going on but could not find their phone numbers their solicitation email, membership subscription confirmation email, their website main page or the “frequently asked question” sections and other pages that a user might click during normal course of using their service. I realized there was no contact information section on their website and then I went on line to check this company, finding many reports of fraudulent transactions or bill scam. I then pretend to be a new customer to sign up to find what was on the sign up page. Spending couple minutes looking for misleading information on that page, I saw a sentence with small fonts on the right corner of the page that “all subscriptions will be auto renewed.” I found their phone number but it is among words stating that users can cancel at any time during try out period. There is no statement that users can or should call to cancel to avoid further charge. <br />The auto renewal information should not be considered as a term of the service contract. Considering that there is no phone number of information regarding auto renewal or cancellation procedure in the subscription confirmation email or other pages other than the new user signing up page, this is a well designed fraudulent, as least misleading practice. It is a scam. Agreed.<br />What I am so angry about is that it is a practice led by lawyers and users are solicited by lawyers, who went to law school, passed bar. How could they rip off law graduates with huge debts or young lawyers who got laid off during this bad economy.
