The fair is free of charge to veterans. It will feature workshops on child support; driver's responsibility, including traffic tickets; expungement of criminal records; and Social Security (SSI and SSDI) and Veterans Administration (VA) benefits claims. Light refreshments will be served.

U.S. Reps. John Conyers Jr., D-13th District, and Gary Peters, D-14th District, will also speak at the fair.
The fair is one in a series of events conducted by LAD as part of its broad based advocacy program. The fair is funded by a grant from Quicken Loans, with additional support from the federal Legal Services Corp., Michigan State Bar Foundation, Michigan Veterans Foundation, and the VA.
