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.

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.
