When I thought all hope was lost, Community Legal Services was recommended to me. They are very helpful and respectful of the situation I'm in. I didn't think I'd have a chance to fight for myself because of my financial situation. I'm forever grateful regardless of the outcome. Case still active.

The receptionist at Community Legal Service was very pleasant and helpful to my problem. She went out of her way to find me phone numbers of places to call to get in contact with my problem. I use those number and websites and got my problem solved. Thanks to the Community Legal Service.

They couldn't help me with my mortgage situation and referred me to another agency which they'll send me information to and that agency will call me back in 2 to 3 weeks.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Sorry they do not offer help with divorces. Try googling free divorce help. I drew up my own paperwork, because i coukdnt afford an attorney either. Its simple really. It takes a lot of work to do it yourself, but its worth it, if you cant afford it. My ex had an attorney also, and she and the judge were quite empressed with what i drew up..... You can do it!!! Good luck!!!

What services do you offer

Shelley Massie | Nov 6, 2018
Richard Miller | Nov 6, 2018

They are attorneys - free and confidential. There is not enough room in this forum to list everything they do. And if there is an area they are not experts in, they have other attorneys that they will refer you to. Call or visit - there is no cost to you, and they will guide you to a successful solution.
