Can the Attorney General
or members of his/her staff provide me with
legal advice?
No. The Attorney General is authorized to
provide legal advice only to departments,
agencies and instrumentalities of State
government. State law restricts the Attorney
General from providing legal advice to private
citizens or organizations. This is reflected
in the state law indicating that the Division
of Law in the Attorney General's Office
is authorized only to counsel
agencies of state government. Per N.J.S.A.
52:17A-4 (e) and 52:17A-11.
You may get a referral to
a private attorney in your county through
the New
Jersey Bar Association's referral service.
You
may also qualfiy for free legal advice
or representation. For more information,
