Legal Aid to have free clinic

Legal Aid announces a Free Legal Aid Walk In Clinic on March 28 at the Bartholomew County Public Library, 536 Fifth St., Columbus. The clinic will be held from 3 to 5 p.m. and is for low-income residents.

The Legal Aid Clinic and Pro Bono Program utilizes local volunteer attorneys, offering free legal consultations to low-income individuals for the provision of legal advice for those who might not otherwise be able to afford the counsel of an attorney.

Individuals coming to the Legal Aid Clinic can expect to receive a 10-minute consultation to answer general and eviction questions, offer legal information, or to receive other limited pro se assistance or advice, in person, on a first-come, first-served basis. There is no need to register in advance.

The general advice clinic will be from 3 to 4 p.m., followed by the eviction clinic from 4 to 5 p.m.

Attorneys will not take criminal law questions.
