Ask YC: in SV, how to meet with lawyer for free?

Hi! I'm in SV, Stanford in particular. I want to talk to a lawyer about LLC / C corporation, and was wondering if there was a way I could do this for free (not the actual filing of paperwork; but talking to them to decide if I should file.) Any tips / tricks / ideas for small startups dealing with lawyers would be appreciated. Thanks!

People sue each other for the silliest reasons these days. I'm creating a MMORPG for the iPhone. Suppose one person says something mean to another person (MySpace Fiasco) or someone gets too addicted to the game (EverQuest / WOW), I don't want to get personally sued (and in this current time, people sue each other for trivial reasons) -- so it's about protection.

haha; okay I meant, how do I form a Deleware C Corporation :-)

ASK YC: DIY C Corporation

Hey all, I've read that it's good to become a Deleware C Corporation to have the company as a separate entity; I've already read that online Deleware C corporation forms for $200.00 sucks. I'm currently a student in California. What's the optimal way for me to become a Deleware C Corporation? Thanks.
