PA Bar Association Extends Free Lawyer Referral Membership to Retuning Veterans
Monday, December 05, 2005
- Organization: PA Bar Association
PA Bar Association members who were deployed on active duty in the Guard or Reserves will receive one year free membership in the PBA' Lawyer Referral Service when they return to private practice.
This policy has been placed into effect in an effort to assist returning member veterans whose practices were disrupted due to deployment in active military zones. In a similar attempt to recognize the hardship placed on deployed attorneys, members are eligible to receive a waiver on regular PBA dues if called to active duty in the Guard or Reserves.
The PBA's Lawyer Referral Service covers 45 counties across Pennsylvania that do not have their own referral service. To apply for the free one year LRS membership, please contact the PBA at 800-932-0311, ext. 2209 for an application.
