The Public Library acts as the Lawyer Referral Service for the Caroline <strong>County</strong> Bar Association.<br />
A reference librarian will put you in touch with an attorney who handles your type of case<br />
(criminal and civil cases included). The attorney will then conduct a half-hour consultation<br />
session for a flat rate of $25. If you cannot afford any type of consultation, ask the librarian for a<br />
pro bono referral for your case, available through the statewide Maryland Legal Assistance<br />
Network (MLAN). You must qualify financially to receive pro bono services.<br />
