How To
What is the best way to get free legal assistance?
It can be hard to find a lawyer who is pro bono because there are so many attorneys out there looking for your business. There are many options for finding a pro-bono attorney. You can contact your local bar association for information, search online to find a list, or consult your state's bar association. Another way to find a pro bono attorney is through a local law school. Many law schools offer the opportunity for students to work with clients who are low-income to ensure that they have access to justice. If none or all of these options appeal, you might be interested in contacting Legal Services Corporation (LSC) to learn more. LSC funds organizations across the country that provide free civil legal assistance to people living below the poverty line. The organization finances programs that help low income individuals with housing problems, child support enforcement matters, family law matters and consumer protection. In addition to providing financial assistance, LSC also advises and guides its grantees on how best to serve their clientele. Some examples of services include:
-
Financial counseling
-
Assistance with filing for bankruptcy
-
Helping families resolve domestic violence situations
-
Representation before administrative authorities
These are some helpful tips for those who are searching for pro bono lawyers.
-
Don't waste your time trying to find a lawyer who specializes in your case type. Pro bono lawyers may represent many types of clients. They will likely not have any experience dealing with your specific issue.
-
It is important to find a lawyer who has represented low-income clients. This is a sign that the lawyer has had experience working with low-income clients.
-
Ask your lawyer if he or she has received any training in the area you are concerned. For example, if you're dealing with landlord/tenant issues, ensure the lawyer you choose has experience handling those kinds of cases.
-
Find out if the lawyer accepts new clients. Some lawyers are limited to certain types of cases. This means that you may not find one who is willing to take on pro bono clients.
-
Avoid lawyers who claim they are experts in one particular area of law. Many lawyers claim that they specialize in different areas of law, but don't have any knowledge about the subject.
-
A strong reputation is essential. Ask close friends and family for recommendations. Look online for reviews of other clients.
