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.
Legal information pamphlets
NYSBA LEGALEase pamphlets have been prepared by various sections,
committees, and members of the NYSBA to provide the public with basic
information about specific areas of New York State law.
