Homeless Legal Representation Project

Homeless Legal Representation Project

The Homeless Legal Representation Project offers an opportunity for the homeless of the Tallahassee area to participate in free legal clinics conducted twelve times annually by volunteer attorneys from local firms and state government who provide legal intake assistance for LSNF in most areas of civil law for area homeless. The law firm of Hopping, Greens, Sams, P.A., have been major underwriters of this project for many years. In Tallahassee the times and dates may vary, at the Tallahassee Shelter on Tennessee St. and the Hope Community. For more information contact John Fenno at (850) 385-701-3306.
