Looking for a lawyer?
The YBM can organize an information session with a lawyer if you qualify for one of its pro bono legal services such as Preparation Services of Hearing, I’ll talk to my lawyer on Wednesday!, Corporate services, or Call-in Legal Clinic.
However, the YBM does not offer a referral service for hiring a young lawyer.
