Looking to hire a lawyer?

The Lawyer Referral & Information Service connects you to qualified attorneys to assist with your situation. LRIS attorneys may charge up to $100 for an initial 30-minute consultation and standard rates (approx. $250-450/hour) upon retention. They may also require a retainer (approx. $4,000+). Most contingency cases (ex: workers comp, personal injury, bankruptcy, and social security appeals) have a different billing process. This program is voluntary for attorneys join and we cannot guarantee a match for every area of law. If a match is made, you are required to reach out to the attorney you are matched with to set up your consultation. Their contact information is sent via email or text message based on the information that is provided in the request.

To submit your case, send a packet to the Bar Association with copies of the disputed bill/invoice, along with any information that you think help proves why your bill is wrong. Include a letter stating which fees you are disputing and why you are disputing the fees. Your packet will be forwarded to the Committee Chair who will contact you about your dispute.
