If you need to pull Avvo Lawyer data at scale and there's no clean official API, this guide shows how to export it to JSON, CSV or Excel in a couple of minutes — with no scraping code to maintain.
We'll use the Avvo Lawyer Scraper - Attorney Leads & Contacts, a hosted scraper on the Apify platform. You only need a free Apify token — no Avvo Lawyer login, no proxies, no reverse-engineering.
What data you get
Each run returns structured records with fields like:

- Leave the input empty for a broad sample, or set the fields below.
- Run it, then Export the dataset as CSV/JSON/Excel.
Option 2 — Node.js
npm install avvo-lawyer-scraper
const scrape = require("avvo-lawyer-scraper");
(async () => {
const items = await scrape({}, { token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
console.log(items.length, "results");
console.log(items[0]);
})();
