PERSONAL INJURY CASES -- Many personal injury lawyers will agree to represent you on a 15 to 50% contingency fee basis (only and if money is recovered.)

An attorney may be able to represent you pro bono (free of charge) if your situation can match these criteria:

FREE LEGAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM -- There are a number of non-profit legal services providers in Counties throughout America that are dedicated to helping low-income families in non-criminal or civil cases. People who are elderly, disabled, the victims of domestic violence, enlisted in the military or in other special circumstances may be eligible for help even if their income is a little higher than 125 percent of the federal poverty level.

SOCIAL JUSTICE or CIVIL RIGHTS ISSUES -- If your case deals with these issues: abuse by a partner or spouse, sexual harassment by an employer, freedom of speech, freedom of religion, housing discrimination, employment discrimination, or environment pollution call the local bar association or private organizations such as The NAACP legal defense fund, The American Civil Liberties Union, The National Women’s Law Center, The lambda legal defense and education fund (gay and lesbian rights), The Natural Resources Defense Council.

Americans with Disability Act - Violations of the Act involving employment, accessibility, and reasonable accommodation.

Landlord Tenant Issues - Involving private landlords, such as illegal lockouts, eviction and termination of rental contract, failure to make repairs or provide essential legal services, failure to refund deposits.

Housing Discrimination - Based on gender, religion, race, national origin, color, familial status, or handicap.

Housing Counseling - First time homebuyer training, foreclosure assistance.

Consumer Issues - Wrongful repossession and violations of the Fair Debt Collection Law.

Immigration issues - Assist victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and other crimes with adjustments of their immigration status.

If pro bono or legal aid program can‘t help you, try some alternatives like contacting a low-fee lawyer through a lawyer referral service in your town. Or consider hiring a lawyer to work only on a part of your legal case and do the other parts yourself. This is called "unbundled" legal services (when lawyers provide help with just a portion of your legal problem.)

FAMILY LAW ISSUES -- Many courthouses have established family law centers, where trained staff help non-lawyers with cases involving domestic violence, divorce, child support, child custody and other family law issue or small claims.

REMINDER: The legal aide and free information the Internet provides is mostly general and usually second rate. The first rate information and legal services you can only get when you do speak to a licensed competent attorney in your State.
