History

The 140-year history of Martindale-Hubbell begins with two separate publications:

The Martindale Directory The Martindale Directory was first published in 1868 by James B. Martindale, a lawyer and businessman.[1] Its purpose was "to furnish to lawyers, bankers, wholesale merchants, manufacturers, real estate agents, and all others…the address of one reliable law firm, one reliable bank, and one reliable real estate office in every city in the United States..."[2]

By the 1896 edition, the Directory included the basic information that still appears in our standard Practice Profile listings, as well as ratings and a section on foreign lawyers and firms.[3]

Hubbell's Legal Directory In 1930 the Martindale Company purchased the publishing rights to Hubbell's Legal Directory.[4] This Directory consisted of three parts: a digest of the collected laws of each state; court calendars; and a selective list of lawyers and firms.[5]

Joining forces This first edition of the Martindale-Hubbell Law Directory, combining the features of both predecessor publications, was published in 1931 as a two-volume set. Volume I consisted of the lawyer listings and Volume II the Law Digest.[6]

Joining Reed USA Martindale-Hubbell, located in New Providence, New Jersey, became part of Reed Publishing (USA) in 1990.[7] There are more than 500 people working to develop the Martindale-Hubbell line of products and services.[8]

Martindale.com contains the profiles of over one million lawyers and firms globally.[9]

The Martindale-Hubbell Ratings

The Martindale-Hubbell Ratings provide a review of a lawyer or law firm to aid buyers and referrers of legal services in choosing the right lawyer or firm for their legal issue.
