What Find Counsel is

Find Counsel is a directory of attorneys admitted to practise in Trinidad and Tobago, run by Silver Tongue Contracting. Attorneys list their own practice, and clients browse the listings and contact the attorney they choose.

• We aren’t a law firm, and we don’t give legal advice.
• We don’t rate, rank or recommend attorneys. A listing isn’t an endorsement by us.
• The order of the list changes every day, and no attorney can pay to appear higher.
• Attorneys don’t pay us per enquiry or per client, and we never take a share of legal fees.
• Clients don’t pay anything to use Find Counsel.

What we check

Before a listing goes live, the attorney shows us their practising certificate for the current year. We check it again each year: a listing still on last year’s certificate is hidden from 1 April until the new one is uploaded. When we’ve seen a current certificate, the profile says so.

We also check each listing against the advertising rules below before it goes live, and every time it’s changed. Everything else in a listing is in the attorney’s own words.

The listing rules

Under the Legal Profession (Third Schedule) (Amendment) Rules, 2026, an attorney may advertise their practice, and a directory listing counts as an advertisement. Each attorney is responsible for their own listing and confirms it follows the Code of Ethics every time they save it. A listing on Find Counsel:

• Must be true, and must not mislead or create an expectation it can’t meet.
• Doesn’t include testimonials, reviews or endorsements.
• Doesn’t claim that the attorney is a specialist, an expert, a leader, or an established or experienced practitioner. It can say which areas the attorney practises in.
• Doesn’t mention fees, costs, discounts, low-cost services, payment plans or contingency fees.
• Doesn’t suggest what a court may award, promise a result, or encourage anyone to go to court.
• Doesn’t refer to a judicial appointment.
• Doesn’t encourage anyone to change their current attorney.
• States the attorney’s position: partner, sole practitioner, associate, assistant or consultant.

Listings can’t carry phone numbers, email addresses or links in their description. Attorneys with Plus show their contact details in their own section of the profile.

Before you contact an attorney

• Sending an enquiry doesn’t make the attorney your attorney. That only happens when you both agree to it.
• Describe what you need in general terms. Don’t send confidential details or documents until you’ve agreed to work together.
• Ask how the attorney charges and what’s included before you instruct them.
• Your enquiry goes to the attorney by email. They see your name, email address, and your phone number if you add it.

Reporting a listing

If a listing looks untrue or misleading, breaks these rules, or is about you without your agreement, use “Report this listing” on the attorney’s profile, or email support@silvertonguecontracting.com. We look at every report, and we may ask the attorney to change their listing or take it down.
