English:

All lawyers in NWLC’s Legal Network have agreed to provide an initial consultation free of charge for clients who learn of them through the Legal Network. When contacting lawyers that NWLC provides to you, you may let them know that NWLC provided you with their name, and confirm that the initial consultation will be free of charge. While some lawyers who participate in the network may occasionally take certain cases pro bono or for a reduced fee, this is not the case for all lawyers in the Network. With any attorney, it is important to understand how you will be billed, and receive a written fee agreement that explains what fees will be charged.
