Can the City Attorney give legal advice to private citizens?
No. The City Attorney cannot provide legal advice to private citizens or residents of the City of Osage Beach. The City Attorney's client is the City government and the City officials, rather than the individual citizens or members of the public. The City Attorney may talk with you but it is recommended for citizens to retain attorneys for legal advice and representation.
