A few things you should know:
Each person is allowed two consultations per calendar year.
This program is not a substitute for legal representation.
Attorneys will provide advice about filling out forms but will not fill out your forms.
We do our best to facilitate helpful consultations but cannot provide guaranties, given the popularity of the program, the dependence on volunteers and the broad range of issues.
