Story
Hamilton Community Legal Clinic was launched on April 1, 2010. Our not-for-profit organization is an amalgamation of the three independent community legal clinics that had been operating in the City for over thirty years, Dundurn Community Legal Services, Hamilton Mountain Legal & Community Services and McQuesten Legal & Community Services. The clinics merged so they could provide legal services to more low income Hamilton residents.

Also in 2010, the Clinic and the Centre de santé communautaire Hamilton/Niagara (CSCH/N) reached an agreement for the delivery of French language poverty law services in Hamilton.   The Clinic is bilingual and has a French language team. With the support of the CSCH/N  we do outreach to stay connected with the Francophone community in Hamilton.

The clinic is run by a volunteer board of directors and we are funded by Legal Aid Ontario. All help is private and confidential.

Mission
Hamilton Community Legal Clinic is a community based not for profit agency whose diverse team of caring professionals and volunteers provides legal services to low income individuals and communities to promote access to justice and to improve quality of life.
We do this through: summary advice and referral, representation, community development, law reform and public legal education
