A low-income client who may qualify for assistance through Legal Aid contacts you directly,
Call one of our pro bono coordinators for an eligibility screening.
If the client meets the financial and other criteria, a pro bono file will be established at Legal Aid for monitoring and other support services just as if the client had originated with us.
Self-referral of cases is the best way to provide legal services to the truly needy, because he or she has the lawyer of his choice without waiting for a referral.
You choose the case and client.

Check the New Cases Page in the Advocate Resource Center for current cases available. Use the website to contact a coordinator and report on the case.
