To use this service, the caller's household income and liquid assets will be considered.
In contacting the DOMESTIC VIOLENCE LEGAL ADVICE LINE, your call will normally be routed to an attorney, who will help you to understand your legal rights and responsibilities. You may receive immediate assistance, be sent a letter or materials giving you information or advice, or be referred to other service providers, depending on what action the situation requires. In some cases, the staff may try to solve your problem through negotiation or other brief legal service.
In calling the DOMESTIC VIOLENCE LEGAL ADVICE LINE, you need to have all papers or documents concerning your problem readily available.
The DOMESTIC VIOLENCE LEGAL ADVICE LINE is not a crisis line or a hotline for victims of domestic violence that need immediate intervention or shelter. Call your local police or domestic violence shelter if you are being battered.
This program is federally funded through a grant from the U.S. Department of Justice Violence Against Women Grants Office.
