Description

Allegany Law is a legal services program assisting low-income clients and seniors in Allegany County in Western Maryland in civil cases. Assistance includes referrals to pro bono attorneys and representation by contract attorneys providing reduced fee assistance through legal clinics and court representation. Eligible clients are provided assistance with their cases at no cost. To apply for legal assistance, call 301-722-3390 during intake hours: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to noon. If you do not reach a staff member when you call in, leave a message with a number to reach you. When you are screened in the intake process you will be asked questions about your family income. Our ability to provide you with representation is regulated by our grantors and is based on the family income and the type of case. We will require you to provide proof of income before the case is accepted for placement. Because we rely on the generosity of volunteer attorneys to accept cases when they are available, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to find a lawyer for every client. If you have a case in court, it is important that you give us as much time as possible prior to a court date to try and find you an attorney. If you have any questions, please contact us at 301-722-3390. Our office is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
