This is a service operated by The Law Society of Yukon for members of the public. It is to help you
determine if you have a legal problem for which you need the services of a lawyer:
- you are responsible for contacting the lawyer of your choice from a list and making the appointment
to see that lawyer
- when you make the appointment be sure that the lawyer is aware that you are on a referral from The
Law Society and when you attend at the lawyer's office, take the certificate with you and present
it to the lawyer at the beginning of the consultation
- the lawyer will provide you with some basic legal information and advise you whether or not you need
a lawyer for your problem
- the lawyer is not responsible under the Referral Certificate for doing any legal work or taking any
further action on your behalf beyond the one half-hour initial consultation
- if you would like that lawyer to represent you after the initial consultation and the lawyer agrees
to represent you, the fee and retainer arrangements and instructions will be a private matter between
you and the lawyer
