Free Legal Answers Clinic

CABA and Public Interest Law Initiative (PILI) are co-hosting a 1-hour Free Legal Answers Clinic to assist low-income Illinoisans with their civil legal questions. A brief happy hour will follow the clinic.

What is Illinois Free Legal Answers? Illinois Free Legal Answers is a secure website where low-income Illinoisans can ask a lawyer for help with a civil legal issue. Volunteer lawyers then log onto the site at their convenience and answer questions waiting in the queue. It is a virtual walk-in legal clinic. Malpractice coverage is provided.

How the Legal Answers Clinic will work:

1. Before the event, volunteer attorneys need to register an account with IL.freelegalanswers.org.

2. We will meet on Zoom during the clinic hour to answer as many questions as possible. Volunteer attorneys can then answer questions whenever they want and keep going after the clinic ends!
