Susan Oehl Serves on the Board of Houston Lawyer Referral Service

 

Susan E. Oehl, a partner at Jenkins & Kamin LLP (www.jenkinskamin.com) currently serves on the HLRS™ Board and was the immediate-past President of the organization. A 2006 graduate of South Texas College of Law Houston and Board Certified Family Law practitioner since 2017, Susan appreciates the opportunity to use her legal experience and leadership skills to give back to her local bar association and the greater Houston community.

Established in 1958, the Houston Lawyer Referral Service (HLRS™) is a non-profit, community service program connected to the legal profession. HLRS™ helps connect qualified, pre-screened lawyers with community members in need of legal services for a variety of issues.

When you contact HLRS™, a trained staff member will help assess the nature of the problem and can connect you with an attorney in private practice to assist you. HLRS™ has nearly 200 attorney members that can accept cases in 38 different legal categories, are in good standing with the State Bar of Texas, and must also meet strict guidelines and criteria to join HLRS. All HLRS™ attorney members provide an initial 30-minute office consultation for a nominal fee of $20 and commit to charge a reasonable fee after they are retained to represent a party.*

*Note: Personal injury matters usually involve a contingency fee arrangement instead of requiring payment at the beginning of representation.
