How does our service work?
When you call (1-800-342-3661) the New York
State Bar Association Lawyer Referral and Information Service (LRIS),
you will be asked what county you are calling from, and where in
New York you would like to see an attorney. The LRIS staff will
ask you to describe your problem. Any information you provide will be
held in the strictest confidence. The LRIS counselors are not lawyers
and therefore cannot give you legal advice, but will help you find the
right resource for your situation. In the event that we do not offer
lawyer referrals in your county, we will provide you with contact
information for a lawyer referral service that does.
What is the cost?
If you are referred to an attorney through the lawyer
referral service the attorney will provide you with a half-hour
consultation for $35. (Free consultations are given for personal injury,
social security, medical malpractice, veteran's and military law,
unemployment or workers' compensation.) During your visit with the
attorney, you and the attorney will discuss your matter and decide what
further action to take, if any. There is no obligation for you to hire
the attorney, nor is there any obligation on the part of the attorney to
take your case. If the attorney agrees to represent you, the attorney
will charge you at his or her regular rates.
