By calling the LRIS, you will speak with a staff member who is experienced in analyzing potential legal problems like yours. LRIS staff members are not lawyers and, therefore, cannot give legal advice. However, they are very experienced in determining whether your situation requires the services of a lawyer or if another type of assistance better suits your needs.
If a lawyer’s help is needed, you will be given the name and telephone number of a licensed, insured, and experienced lawyer who can help you. The type of legal issue you have, along with your geographic location, will be taken into consideration so that the most appropriate and convenient referral is made.
You will receive a 30 minute consultation for $20 for the purpose of potentially hiring legal representation. If you hire the attorney, fee arrangements are made between you (the client) and your attorney.
Our LRIS staff members are available to take your telephone call between 9:30am and 4:00pm, Monday – Friday, excluding federal holidays. You can also submit an attorney referral request online, by clicking the “Request a Lawyer Referral” button below. If you submit a request online, we will respond as quickly as possible
All communication is held in the strictest confidence. You are under no obligation to retain the attorney to whom you are referred.
