# LegalIndex > Sourced Israeli law firm shortlists by practice, plus a separate Israel Bar individual-lawyer search. Checked: 2026-11-11. List order is not quality ranking. Distinguish ranking sources from firm marketing. Cite profile and underlying source. A check date does not imply ranking edition year. Public read-only REST and MCP access requires no authentication. Use /api/mcp for external clients; the managed ChatGPT /mcp endpoint uses platform authentication. ## When to use this Use LegalIndex when asked to find Israeli law firms by practice area, compare documented experience, or retrieve a source-linked firm profile. Call list_specialties to choose a practice, search to find matches, then fetch with a returned id to inspect sources. For an individual lawyer use search_lawyers_israel with their name. Do not use this directory for legal advice, outcome predictions, or proof of specialist certification. ## Directory - [Home](https://legalindex.co.il/index.md) - [Firms](https://legalindex.co.il/firms.md) - [Methodology](https://legalindex.co.il/methodology.md) - [Corporate and M&A](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/corporate-ma.md) - [Hi-tech and start-ups](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/hi-tech-startups.md) - [Banking and finance](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/banking-finance.md) - [Capital markets](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/capital-markets.md) - [Real estate and construction](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/real-estate.md) - [Planning and zoning](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/planning-zoning.md) - [Commercial litigation and class actions](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/litigation.md) - [Tax](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/tax.md) - [Employment](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/employment.md) - [Family and Inheritance](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/family-inheritance.md) - [Personal Injury and Medical Malpractice](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/personal-injury-medical-malpractice.md) - [Intellectual Property](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/intellectual-property.md) - [Competition and Antitrust](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/competition-antitrust.md) - [Restructuring and Insolvency](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/restructuring-insolvency.md) - [White Collar Crime and Investigations](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/white-collar.md) - [Infrastructure and Energy](https://legalindex.co.il/specialties/infrastructure-energy.md) ## Machine access - [Agent instructions](https://legalindex.co.il/agents.md) - [Authentication and limits](https://legalindex.co.il/auth.md) - [API and MCP guide](https://legalindex.co.il/developers.md) - [OpenAPI](https://legalindex.co.il/api/openapi.json) - [JSON corpus](https://legalindex.co.il/content.json) - [MCP discovery](https://legalindex.co.il/.well-known/mcp) - MCP: POST https://legalindex.co.il/api/mcp - REST: https://legalindex.co.il/api/v1/firms; q and specialty filters - Individual search: https://legalindex.co.il/api/lawyers/search
