Eligibilty for SMLS Services
SMLS seeks to make its services accessible to as many
residents as possible. This access may be limited to legal advice
because we do not have enough staff to handle all of the requests
for services.
En nuestra oficina hay personas que hablan Espanñol y
Portugués para servir las comunidades hispana, portuguésa,
y brasileña. Proveemos servícios legales civiles sin
costo para personas que cúmplen con nuestros requisitos de
eligibilidad y que viven en la área geográfica que
se encuentra en la página anterior.
Services are available to residents who live in the
communities served by SMLS, meet the income guidelines established
by the Legal Services Corporation, and whose requests for help fall
within the priorities listed in CASES
HANDLED.
