NEED HELP?
In order to better serve the legal community and in particular, members of the Institute of Local Government Attorneys, a legal assistance committee has now been formed.

This committee is comprised of active senior municipal practitioners having at least ten years of experience in the field. These individuals have volunteered their time to provide assistance to those needing an opinion in the various areas of this practice. The opinions rendered do not represent an official position of the Institute, but rather, are provided as a public serve and support network.

For general assistance and for those areas not having a specific name listed next to them, please feel free to call Glenn C. Kienz. Anyone interested in dedicating some time in areas not covered should also contact Glenn.
