Need Representation

The Pro Bono Project accepts a limited number of cases each year. Civil (non-criminal) cases are referred directly by Southeast Louisiana Legal Services Corporation (SLLS) to the Pro Bono Project for placement with volunteer attorneys. To apply for free legal services, you must contact Southeast Louisiana Legal Services Corporation at (855) 512-3980 or (225) 448-0080 or complete a web application at www.slls.org. Eligibility for service is based on gross income and in relation to family size, assets and case type. If SLLS accepts your case, it may be referred to the Pro Bono Project for placement with a volunteer attorney.

If you do not qualify for free legal services, you may find additional resources on the Louisiana State Bar Association website. The LSBA offers a Modest Means Directory that provides contact information of attorneys who charge reduced rates or charge less because they represent someone for just part, and not all, of a case. For information on fees and services, contact the attorney(s) listed on that site.
