About

Services are generally limited to people whose household incomes are at or below 125% of the federal poverty guidelines.  An individual’s available assets must also fall within the asset ceiling.

All eligible clients are provided a free initial consultation with either a legal staff member or a Judicare attorney.  The type of service provided depends upon the legal problem the individual is facing.  Many clients are helped by immediate advice on their problem, including things they can do themselves to address or solve the problem.  A variety of written materials and brochures are available to assist them with self-help remedies.  If a client requires further assistance, their case must fall within a priority category.

LSNM handles cases such as:

  • Public assistance and disability benefits
  • Family law
  • Consumer law
  • Health law
  • Housing
