The Metropolitan Lawyer Referral Service - The MRLS is sponsored by several local bar associations including the First Judicial District Bar Association for Jefferson County, Colorado. Since 1972, the MLRS has helped individuals and businesses during their search for an attorney in Golden, Colorado. This non-profit and community based service screens local attorneys for their experience and good standing with the Colorado State Bar. The advantage of using a lawyer referral service includes the ability to talk with a trained staff person, pay a $75 consultation fee and receive an impartial referral to a local attorney with experience with that type of case.
