Description
49 Indiana counties don't have enough lawyers and are considered "legal deserts." The state's attorney shortage was even blamed when a county prosecutor initially dismissed a murder case. Overall, the lack of attorneys is leaving people, especially in rural counties, without legal help.
A state commission proposed 40+ solutions, but they need YOUR input by Friday!
