Currently, the range of legal services is very diverse. You can turn to lawyers for help in paperwork, in opening an inheritance, for protection in criminal and representation in civil proceedings, etc.

Step 1
The number of bar associations, bureaus and offices, law firms employing specialists who do not have the status of lawyers is growing almost every day. However, in order to get really high-quality services, pay attention to the duration of the existence of the legal organization, to the experience of the specialists working in it, to customer reviews, etc.
Step 2
Contact firms or lawyers specializing in a specific area of jurisprudence: taxes, notaries, inheritance, joint ownership, housing, labor disputes, etc. Here, everything is like doctors' - no one would ever think to go to an ophthalmologist with a complaint of toothache. It's good if you go to a specialist on the recommendation of friends.
Step 3
As a rule, in law firms and bar associations, pre-registration is practiced by phone or via the Internet. Therefore, having signed up for an example and specifying the address, prepare in advance for a meeting with a lawyer: collect all the documents you have on hand, write questions in writing, the answers to which you want to receive. Most likely, you will be offered to draw up a contract for the provision of services, so take your identity document with you.
Step 4
The amount of remuneration for the rendered legal services depends primarily on the complexity of your problem. Many law firms do not charge a fee for oral advice. And there are those who provide free legal advice to the poor. In some cities of Russia, student "legal clinics" have been set up, in which senior students of law schools under the guidance of teachers and practicing lawyers provide free legal assistance.
Step 5
Legal assistance in various branches of law can also be obtained in absentia - on the official websites of professional organizations, by filling out a questionnaire and sending a question to a lawyer.
