Legal Program

 

 

Legal Clinics

The Justice Center's Legal Clinic provides one time advice about legal rights and responsibilities, options for dealing with legal issues, and information about how the legal system works so you know what to expect when you have to go to court.

The Legal Clinic is held on the first Monday of each month from 6:00 to 8:00 pm.* Appointments are recommended, but the Legal Clinic also takes walk-ins.

Legal Clinics are staffed by local attorneys who volunteer their time. If you will need ongoing legal assistance, a referral can be made at the end of your session to a local attorney with the expertise you need.

For more information, or to make an appointment,
please call 748-2977.

 

*If the first Monday of the month is a holiday, please call to find out when the Legal Clinic is scheduled.

 

Paralegal Assistance

The assistance of a paralegal is available at no cost to area residents in need of problem solving in order to resolve their issues. The CJC's paralegal can assist with the completion of forms and applications, suggest approaches to resolving problems, identify legal and non-legal resources available to the resident and make referrals to the CJC's Legal Clinic, the Caledonia Court's Legal Clinic, Vermont Legal Aid, private attorneys and other legal assistance as appropriate.
