Got a speeding ticket and went to court in Waimea where was referred to Public Defenders office. They say I don't qualify for help from them because I have some money saved up to try to get a construction loan to build a small home on a vacant lot my eldest son gave me. So wondering what the qualifications are for help from Legal Aid, please.

I am planning on filing for Chapter 7 bankruptcy and cannot afford to pay the legal fees that most law firms charge. Is there any way your office can help me or refer me to someone qualified in that field of law?

Important Information

Legal Aid Funding
Legal aid professionals and organizations oftentimes receive government funding for taking on cases with those who cannot afford attorneys. For the most part, funding is limited so legal aid entities can only take on a limited amount of cases. Qualifications are often rigid.
