   Is Orange County law firm a scam?

   • The law firm is legit but something about that logo looks fake. You said that your case number has not shown up which means this could be a scam BUT. Call the orange county court and check that case number. "Superior Court" lol, no. This is not a summons or subpoena and it would not come regular mail. Nothing real about it at all

   It's a solicitation letter from that law firm. It is a boilerplate letter they send out. They must search court records or get a list of new filings. Someone is suing you. Go to the OC Court website and search case information. It's free and you don't need anything just the case number.
