* WIB's attorneys are retained to provide reasonable consultation and this is not a prepaid legal service. Members need to seek their own counsel or arrangements to the extent they need document drafting or representation before courts and state agencies. Boardman Law Firm LLP is an independent firm offering direct representation to WIB members at reasonable rates, but Members are encouraged to seek individual representation from a law firm that best suits their needs.
