How the Dial-A-Lawyer program takes calls
The Dial-A-Lawyer program runs as a phone-based hotline for a set interval; for this session callers had access between 6 and 8 p.m. on Oct. 6, 2026. To use it, a person dials 615-242-9272 and is connected to a licensed volunteer attorney who provides legal advice over the phone. The Nashville Bar Association organizes and advertises the event as a free, public service. Callers should expect a brief consultation rather than ongoing representation; callers seeking longer-term help will typically be advised about referrals or follow-up options by the attorney on the call. The phone window and single published number are the core mechanics the association is using for this session.

Who should call and how to prepare
Dial-A-Lawyer is aimed at people with discrete legal questions who want brief, free guidance by phone; callers may be asking about next steps, procedural questions, or where to look for more help. Before dialing 615-242-9272, gather whatever documents or dates are central to your issue so the attorney can give practical counsel during the limited two-hour window. Have names, relevant dates, and short notes on the sequence of events ready to speed the call. Bring a pen to record any referral the attorney offers and a follow-up contact if one is suggested. While the service supplies legal advice during the session, callers who need representation or extensive counsel will typically be directed to other programs or firms for ongoing assistance.
