LRS Celebrates National Law Day
 

Legal Referral Service

Queens Supreme Court
Brooklyn Borough Hall
Foley Square Park
Bronx Housing Court
In celebration of National Law Day 2008, the Legal Referral Service will hold a series of free legal information fairs in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, and the Bronx from April 29-May 2nd. These events offer citizens the opportunity to speak with volunteer attorneys and representatives from various social service agencies. Informational brochures and pamphlets on a wide range of legal topics will also be available. Attorneys will be on hand to discuss issues such as landlord/tenant, discrimination, small claims court, victim services, immigration, consumer law, wills & trusts, workers compensation, criminal law, matrimonial, small business issues, and more.

LRS sponsors these Law Day events every year and their popularity continues to increase, with more agencies volunteering to participate each year. Not surprisingly, the public is always extremely receptive to these events. Everyone has legal questions, and most people do not know where to turn for answers. Through its Law Day program, the Legal Referral Service increases public awareness about the law and helps people solve their legal problems.
