Our Self Help Staff assist pro per litigants who need conservatorships for family members and friends (predominantly developmentally disabled adult children or seniors with mental capacity issues). Volunteers assist in interviewing litigants, preparing cases for filing and giving out information about the process of obtaining a conservatorship or elder abuse restraining order. Clinics are held Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the downtown Los Angeles Superior Courthouse, Tuesdays from 9 a.m. to noon at the Norwalk Superior Courthouse, Thursdays from 9 a.m. to noon at the Van Nuys courthouse, and Fridays from 9 a.m. to noon at the Pasadena Superior Courthouse. Volunteers are needed to assist in staffing the clinics when they are open as well as assisting in preparing the cases for filing at our Wilshire Boulevard office during normal business hours. English and Spanish speaking volunteers are needed for this clinic.
In assisting litigants, we do not act as their attorney. We do not represent them.
