Legal Services

Legal Services aren't as popular as some other kinds of businesses that dominate the nation's shopping malls. Still, across the entire United States, there are more than 2,000 Legal Services. Based on some simple math, it appears that each one of those Legal Services serves about 150,000 citizens on average.

Our analysis suggests that Legal Services will typically employ 1 to 4 employees. So, it's safe to say that Legal Services play an important role in the national economy.
