DC Refers
DC Refers is an online listing of qualified attorneys who are willing to represent modest-means clients at below-market rates. Individuals whose incomes fall between 200-400% of the federal poverty guidelines do not generally qualify for free legal representation, but often cannot afford to pay market rates for legal assistance that they need. Our mission is to connect qualified lawyers with potential modest-means clients who are seeking reduced fee legal services in the District of Columbia.
