The Utah State Bar is reaching out to the community It wants to help Utahns who need to hire a lawyer but don't know where to start.
The bar launched a Web site findautahlawyer.org to help match attorneys with potential clients.
The Bar president says the directory provides a simple-to-use online listing of participating lawyers and can be searched to match attorneys with a particular legal specialty or situation.
The site has an information section that explains what a lawyer's duties are suggestions for selecting a lawyer and ideas for controlling legal costs.
So far, over six hundred Utah lawyers are taking part in the program.
