You will not be able to get legal help using the contact information above at any other time besides April 18 from noon to 3 PM.

Volunteer attorneys may be able to provide advice on:

✅ Divorce, Child Custody/Support
✅ Immigration
✅ Housing and Landlord-Tenant Disputes
✅ Probate, Wills, and Powers of Attorney
✅ Restoring Voting Rights
✅ Bankruptcy
✅ Other Non-Criminal Legal Issues

Attorneys will provide short consultations (about 20–30 minutes).

1️⃣ Waiting Room: You will be admitted one at a time from the Zoom waiting room. It may take up to 20 minutes for the hosts to greet each person individually, so please be patient and don’t hang up! We will serve people in the order they arrived in the waiting room.

2️⃣ Intake: You will go to a private Zoom room where an intake volunteer will briefly ask about your legal issue so you can be matched with an attorney with experience in that area. You may then have to wait a bit until a volunteer attorney can meet with you. It may take longer for us to get an interpreter. Again, please be patient and don’t hang up or walk away from your computer or you will lose your spot in line!

3️⃣ Legal Advice: You will have 20-30 minutes to talk with the attorney about your legal questions. If you have questions in more than one legal area (e.g. divorce and immigration), at the end of your first advice meeting you will be put back in line to meet with a different attorney. So think about which legal issue is most important for you to get answers on first. The attorney(s) you talk with will not represent you after the clinic.

4️⃣ Leave the Meeting: After you have received advice from the attorney(s), you will be asked to leave the Zoom meeting.

This clinic provides legal advice only and does not create ongoing attorney representation. The attorneys will not prepare any documents for you or go to court with you.

No appointments are required. You can log in to the Zoom anytime between noon and 3 PM on April 18, 2026. First come, first served.

Getting Ready:

Prior to joining, we recommend that you:

Find a quiet place with a strong internet connection. You don’t want to spend your 20 minutes with the attorney dealing with technical issues!
Have any documents up on the screen of your device so that you can share them, if you wish.
Test your microphone, speakers, and camera (if you want to use your camera) on the device that you will be using to make sure it is set up correctly with Zoom. You can test it by clicking here.
If you do not want to share your name with the attorney, follow these directions on Joining a Zoom Meeting Anonymously before logging in.
If you have more than one legal issue in different areas (e.g. you want to modify your child support order but also have a question about food stamps), decide which question is most important to get answered. We will answer both questions, time permitting, but you may have to wait for a second attorney to be available for your second question.
