Clinics offered by OCBA to provide free legal aid
Not everyone can afford to hire an attorney to answer their legal questions. That is why the Oakland County Bar Association (OCBA), in partnership with the D. Augustus Straker Bar Association and Oakland County Youth Assistance, will host three free Legal Aid Clinics throughout Oakland County in April and May.
The first will be offered on Tuesday, April 23, at the Apollo Center in Highland. Additional clinics will be conducted Tuesday, April 30, at the Oak Park Community Center in Oak Park and Tuesday, May 7, at Avondale Meadows in Rochester Hills. All clinics will run from 4:30 to 7 p.m.
During these free clinics, attorneys and legal aid providers will be on-site to provide basic legal information, as well as brief advice and counsel in the areas of juvenile, family, probate, criminal, general civil and landlord/tenant matters. Oakland County residents with legal questions are urged to attend these clinics and speak with an attorney volunteer or a representative from Legal Aid and Defender Association or the Family Law Assistance Project.
To learn more about the clinics or to register, contact the OCBA at (248) 334-3400.
