The Jefferson County Bar Association is hosting a free in-person veterans legal advice clinic in Orange County later this month.

The veterans legal advice clinic will be held from 9 to 11:30 a.m. March 29 at the VFW Post 2775, 5303 N. 16th St., Orange. Volunteer attorneys will be available to provide up to 15 minutes of free legal advice on civil issues to all veterans who attend. Any Jefferson, Hardin, Orange, Liberty or Chambers County veteran or spouse of a deceased veteran is eligible to attend this event free of charge and receive individualized advice in a variety of legal areas including family law, wills and probate, consumer issues, landlord/tenant law, and more. 

All attendees will be required to complete an application for assistance and those needing continued legal representation and possible placement with a pro bono attorney must qualify for legal aid. 

Financial guidelines do apply for continued representation.

Appointments are not necessary but are encouraged to ensure there are ample volunteers.
