What We Need You to Do
Bring any documents you have that are connected with your legal problem, something that explains the nature of the problem, such as a utility bill or an eviction notice or a benefits declination letter.
What We Don't Do
We do not take criminal or traffic cases. If you were charged with committing a crime, you will want a lawyer to represent you. If you cannot afford a lawyer, you may be eligible for a public defender, and can ask for that with the court.
If we cannot help you, there are other organizations that may be able to provide assistance. Click here to view other resources.
