Before you start

  • Use the official directory to reach an actual qualified nonprofit legal provider. CDSS funds programmes; its programme-inquiry number does not establish an individual attorney-client relationship.
  • Free funded legal services do not imply government application-fee waivers, an available appointment or acceptance of every case.
  • The cited provider information describes people who live or previously resided in California. Confirm the actual provider’s scope for your situation.
