HB526

Kentucky HB526 modifies bar membership rules and restricts attorney solicitation practices.

Kentucky HB526 creates a new section in the Kentucky Revised Statutes to clarify the Supreme Court's authority over the bar's organization and governance. It specifies that attorneys cannot be required to join or pay dues to any association without their written consent, except for bar admission and disciplinary fees. The bill also amends existing law to prohibit attorneys and referral services from soliciting clients within 30 days of a traffic citation, injury, accident, or disaster.
