Recorded on July 23, 2024
Do you have clients who must represent themselves in a legal case? Many people earn too much to be eligible for legal aid or community clinics but cannot afford a lawyer.
Moya McAlister and Jennifer Leitch of the National Self-Represented Litigants Project (NSRLP) will explain how you can help clients who are going to court without a lawyer. Self-represented litigants (SRLs) are most common in family law, but NSRLP also hears from people representing themselves in housing, employment, discrimination and consumer law cases.
