 Lawyer Referral Service

BarTalk February 2005
Volume 17, Number 1

You are invited to participate in this service.

What is it? The Lawyer Referral Service (the “Service”) is an initiative which enables members of the public to access lawyers practising in the field of law required for their particular situation, and provides the opportunity to have an initial consultation with a lawyer for up to 30 minutes for $25 plus taxes.

After the consultation, the fees to be charged are strictly between the lawyer and the client. The lawyer is not obliged to accept the applicant’s case and the applicant is under no obligation to retain the lawyer.

What’s in it for me? The free Service can introduce you to potential clients.

How Do I Sign up? A registration form is posted at www.cba.org/bc in the “Initiatives” area for CBA members. Lawyers who are not CBA members may request a form by calling the number below.

For more information:
Tel: 604.687.3404
Toll-free: 1.888.687.3404
Email: lawyerreferral@bccba.org
Funded by the Law Foundation of British Columbia
