COLUMBUS, Ind. – Legal Aid will be making its way back to Bartholomew County before the end of the month, as another opportunity for the free service is scheduled for Monday, August 26, from 3 to 5 p.m., at the United Way Center.
The Legal Aid Clinic and Pro Bono Program utilizes local volunteer attorneys, offering free legal consultations for the provision of legal advice and assistance in furtherance of equal access to justice within the community. It is meant for low-income individuals who might not otherwise be able to afford the counsel of an attorney.
Residents coming to the Free Legal Aid Clinic in Bartholomew County can expect to receive a 10-minute consultation with a lawyer who will answer general questions, offer legal information, or give other limited assistance or advice on a first-come, first-serve basis. There is no need to register in advance.
