Applicants must be either United States citizens or legal aliens, with current documentation to be eligible for services. Non-citizens may be required to produce appropriate documentation. Undocumented aliens who are victims of domestic violence or human trafficking may be eligible for some services.
5. Conflicts of Interest
Lawyers must avoid conflicts of interest that arise from talking with both parties of a dispute. We will ask you for information about the person, business or agency with whom you are having a problem to identify any potential conflicts of interest. If you are applying for help on behalf of another person, we will determine whether we can speak with you or whether we need to speak directly with the person on whose behalf you are calling both to avoid conflicts and to assure that we can obtain adequate information about the client and case from you.
