- First, we find out if you are financially eligible for our services.
- Next, we find out if your problem is one we can handle.
We may ask you to send copies of your relevant paperwork.
If you qualify for our services and we have the resources to assist you, we will either:
- give you advice or educational information to help you with the next steps in the legal process;
- refer you to a volunteer attorney; or
- represent you in your legal matter.
You can also receive legal assistance through community legal education and brief advice and referral clinics that Legal Aid hosts throughout Northeast Ohio. Check for dates and locations.
