No representation of any kind is undertaken. Many clients are prepared during these sessions – typically lasting 30–45 minutes each – for pro se representation; referrals are made to a variety of sources if the volunteer attorney determines that legal representation is necessary or desirable. Mentors, who are experts in the four subject areas, are present or available by telephone on each night to assist the volunteer attorneys. Go to www.nycla.org or call 212-267-6646 and ask for Lois Davis, NYCLA Pro Bono Coordinator, for more information.

I pay a $20 monthly fee and I've received so much free advice - from contracts, to wills, to trademarks. They even sent a "demand" letter to an individual I sued.They work with a law firm in Long Island and the response rate is 2 to 3 hours, the lawyers are very professional, polite and extremely knowledgeable!
