The Oakland County Clerk/Register of Deeds Office welcomed Southfield attorney Altinia Latinis (pictured) of Latinis Fakhouri PLC on Tuesday, Feb. 21, as the first attorney to volunteer for Ask the Lawyer Day.
“People come into our office all day long with basic legal questions,” Clerk/Register of Deeds Bill Bullard explained.
“But though many times our staff knows the answers, they are prohibited from giving legal advice, no matter how mundane or simple it may be.”
Ask the Lawyer Day is the result of a conversation between Bullard and Latinis during her visit to the Register of Deeds office on business.
After hearing the kinds of simple questions that customers had to seek out an attorney in order to get answers, Latinis offered her services on a regular pro bono basis as a public service.
Any other attorneys interested in participating in future Ask the Lawyer Days can contact Bullard at 248-858-9922.
