The AAJ is committed to promoting a fair and effective civil justice system while supporting the work of attorneys representing plaintiffs.
Central Kentucky Lawyer Referral Service - Since 1995, the Fayette County Bar Association (FCBA) in Lexington, KY, has sponsored its own separate Lawyer Referral Service. The CKLRS was created to help individuals who need a qualified attorney and have the ability to pay reasonable attorney fees. When you call the service, a trained staff person will help you determine the type of attorney needed. When appropriate, you will be referred to a local attorney with experience in the needed practice area. The attorneys that participate in the program agree to charge a nominal consultation fee of $25 for a 30 minute consultation. During the initial consultation, you can discuss the case with the attorney and the fees needed for additional representation.
