To find out if you qualify, contact the Legal Clinic. What will happen when I contact the clinic? When you contact the Clinic, the staff will ask for some general information about your situation. You may be given some general information the first time you call and you may be asked to call back to speak with an intake worker. What services does the Legal Clinic offer? The Legal Clinic offers Summary Advice, which is information provided when you call the Clinic. It may include a referral to another legal resource.
