Lawyer Referral Service

Let us help you find the right lawyer.

The Lawyer Referral Service (LRS) of the Dayton Bar Association (DBA) has been connecting people in Dayton with attorneys in the area since 1980. We are a trusted resource in the community with over 100 Attorneys on the panel in over 200 practice areas. We will assess your needs and provide a referral to an attorney in your area who can best assist you.

How can I get a referral?

Simply fill out a questionnaire and an email providing your referral information will be sent your way. Be sure to check your junk and/or spam inboxes within 48 hours. If you do not receive a referral within 48 hours, we do not have an attorney listed in that field of practice.

What should I expect when receiving a referral?

If LRS has identified an attorney for your needs, you will be provided with that attorney’s name and phone number.  It will be your responsibility to contact the attorney to schedule your initial 30 minute in office consultation. There is often a consultation fee of $50, which you will need to pay the attorney when you meet with them.
