Finding your way through the legal system is difficult. Many people don’t know where to turn when a legal problem arises.
Our most successful community program is the Lawyer Referral and Information Service (LRIS). The LRIS is a FREE over the phone referral service for anyone that has a legal question or is seeking to obtain legal counsel.
How the program works
Our trained interviewers assess the caller’s situation and determine the most appropriate way to proceed.
The caller is then either referred to a LRIS panel attorney, government agency or community resource, depending on the nature of the legal problem.
If the caller is referred to an attorney, the first half-hour of the attorney-client consultation will cost no more than $20.00.
THIS IS A FREE SERVICE. LRIS does not charge caller for information or referrals. All calls are treated confidentially.
We assist people everyday with their legal problems and help point them in the right direction.
LRIS attorneys are available in the following areas of law:
The attorneys to whom we refer have agreed to offer an initial thirty (30) minute consultation for a fee of no more than twenty ($20) dollars. You are NOT obligated to hire the attorney. If you do retain them, all fees need to be negotiated directly between you and the attorney. Please be aware that we do not give out any lists of attorneys.
Waukeshalawyers.org is committed to maintaining your privacy. None of your personal information will be given away, sold, or otherwise transferred to any party except in the event that we find an attorney for you. In such an event, we would provide the attorney with your name, address, and telephone number. If you have any questions about our privacy policy, please call us at (262)544-4016.

problem is an emergency, you should consult an attorney immediately. Under
