Your Legal Rights

HOW CAN I FIND OUT IF LEGAL AID CAN HELP ME?

To Apply For Legal Help:

You can call Toll Free at 1-888-201-2772 Monday through Thursday from 8:30 am to 4 pm or on Friday from 8:30 am to noon and 1 pm to 4 pm. Or you can apply on line 24 hours a day at www.svlas.org. When you call or go on line, you will need to tell us how many people live in your household and the total amount of the household’s income. You will need to explain to our Intake Paralegal the kind of help or advice that you need. If you have received notices, letters or court papers, be sure to have those documents with you when you call. Be prepared to give us an address where you can receive mail and a phone number where you can be reached and where Legal Aid staff can leave messages for you. If you call us on a day when we have many callers, you may need to leave a message and get a call back. Be sure to tell us when is the best time to reach you at the number you give us. You cannot call Legal Aid to apply for services for another person. If a friend or family member needs assistance, however, you can call us when that person is with you and our Intake Paralegal can speak with both of you.
