| Services | CAAP is a statewide dispute resolution program and service of the State Bar of Texas. It is available to the public and the State Bar members (attorneys). The program was launched on Sept. 27, 1999. CAAP may be reached from anywhere in the United States by calling 1-800-932-1900. Assists clients and attorneys in resolving minor problems affecting their
relationships when the issues do not involve misconduct under the Texas
Disciplinary Rules of Professional Conduct. Makes referrals to appropriate
State Bar of Texas departments, local bar associations, and other community
and State of Texas agencies that will be able to serve those persons who
contact CAAP for assistance. |
