Finding legal services for free can be a difficult task, but if you search diligently you may be able to get free legal advice, consultation or representation. One way is to locate your nearest law school. Law schools often have free events where lawyers assist students in giving information. A caveat to this is you may need to qualify to participate in such programs by having a household income of lower than $40,000/year.
An alternative to this is finding about other state sponsored pro bono programs. It is high recommended by State bars that lawyers strive to meet a certain number of pro bono hours each year. These programs are commonly held within the community and give clients in need of legal advice a chance to receive it for free.
You may also want to contact a lawyer directly and explain your situation. Sometimes circumstances are so extenuating that an attorney may take the case on a pro bono basis. Often times, an attorny who takes such a case will believe strongly in the merits or cause.
