Send all inquiries and requests by mail. Due to a large volume of requests for legal assistance, PA Institutional Law Project has a staff person who responds to every inquiry. An assessment of legal merit is made and if appropriate information and referrals are provided.

Son is in Clearfield county prison, hand broken twice, refused medical, now it's probably permanent. He is a tattoo artist, with all the degrees needed. Injury will interfere with his lively hood. His present lawyer said it doesn't have anything to do with his case. Injury accoured during his incarceration, he is still in the same facility.

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.
