This guide was published in March 2000 by the President's Commission on Access to Legal Services of the Monroe County Bar Association and funded by a grant from the Foundation of the Monroe County Bar. We hope that this guide is of assistance to you. We are most anxious to provide you with the best possible information on available legal services and would appreciate your comments where descriptions offered are not in accord with services listed, or if certain services familiar to you do not appear. Only through cooperative efforts can we provide accurate information that will assist in making you more aware of the availability of legal assistance.
