  Finding An Attorney
   
  The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements.  Before you make a decision, ask any prospective lawyer to send written information about qualifications and experience.
   
  Under Florida law, non-lawyers are permitted to sell legal forms & kits and type in the factual information provided by the customer.  They may not, however, give legal advice or provide legal services. 
   
  The Indian River County Bar Association supports The Florida Bar Lawyer Referral Service (LRS) to assist persons in need of a lawyer to identify local ones who specialize in the field of law that appears to relate to the need of such persons   (1-800-342-8011 or 1-800-342-8060 extension 5844).  This service provides referrals to attorneys who will conduct an initial one-half hour office consultation for no more than $25.  Participating attorneys are required to submit an extensive application to the service and they must be a member in good standing of The Florida Bar with no pending probable cause complaints.  Referral Service attorneys also are required to have professional liability insurance with limits of not less than $100,000.   LRS also has established low fee, Elderly Law, AIDS Law and Disability Law panels for clients in need.   Further details can be obtained by clicking on:    
   

The Directory of Members section of this IRC Bar Association website also identifies the specialty areas of practice of the association's members.  Members may also be located by utilizing the directory of Practice Areas.
