The Lawyer Referral Service (LRS) is a service designed to help Pittsburgh and western Pennsylvania residents find the right lawyers for their specific types of legal matters. Each year, thousands of clients call the ACBA looking for an attorney, and the ACBA refers those cases to LRS panel attorneys. ACBA members may join the Lawyer Referral Service panel for a nominal fee – “test drive” the service for six months for just $150 – and have referrals sent directly to you from the bar association. Call 412-261-5555 for more information or download the application below.
