LexPair does not practice law itself; we are a referral and matching platform that connects clients with independent licensed attorneys. ### How much does it cost to use LexPair to find a Louisiana attorney? LexPair is free for clients. There is no cost to submit your case, no cost to review your matches, and no obligation to hire any attorney. Legal fees are arranged directly between you and the attorney you choose, under their normal rates or any free or reduced-cost consultation they offer. ### What types of legal issues can Louisiana residents get help with on LexPair?

Your intake details are encrypted and shared only with the matched Louisiana attorneys. Communications you have directly with an attorney you choose to engage are subject to the attorney-client privacy rules of Louisiana. LexPair is not a law firm, so submitting your case to LexPair does not by itself create an attorney-client relationship. ### Does LexPair work in cities and counties across Louisiana? Yes.
