  • Custody, Visitation and Child Support
  • Criminal
  • Divorce

  • Immigration
  • Landlord/Tenant Issues

  • Personal Injury
  • Probate, Estates and Wills
  • Real Estate

When you contact the service, staff will help you evaluate your situation and then refer you to an attorney who practices in that area of law. The service is unable to provide you with legal advice.

There is a $25 fee for the referral service, which includes a 30 minute consultation with the attorney. Any additional attorney’s fees for services will be discussed between you and the attorney.  PAY HERE
