A bill for an act creating a rural attorney recruitment assistance program, and making appropriations.

SF 250 creates a program to help rural Iowa counties and municipalities recruit attorneys by offering financial incentives. It targets areas with populations under 26,000 located more than 20 miles from a city of 50,000+ residents. Eligible attorneys receive annual tuition reimbursements (90% of University of Iowa law school costs) over five years, with counties covering 35% of the cost. The program limits participation to five attorneys and requires them to work full-time in the area for five years while providing legal services to low-income residents.
