SC Bar teams up with county libraries to offer Law Talks series on important legal topics

The SC Bar is collaborating with county libraries across the Palmetto State to offer a series of free sessions for the public on key legal topics. Called Law Talks, these events are designed to educate and provide general legal information on the topics such as landlord-tenant law, credit card debt, end-of-life issues, family law, wills and estates, and more.

Each session includes a 30–45-minute presentation followed by a question-and-answer session with a volunteer attorney. Nearly 70 attorneys have volunteered to participate in Law Talks statewide.

“We are excited to partner with libraries statewide to host these educational Law Talks,” said Cindy Coker, director of Public Services for the South Carolina Bar. “It is important for everyone to develop an understanding of the law and the legal system. We appreciate the willingness of our Bar members to give of their time and share their knowledge to make these events successful.”

Between September through November, there will be 70 sessions available statewide. See a list of upcoming Law Talk sessions at https://www.scbar.org/public/events-public/ or check out the SC Bar’s Facebook page.
