Western Massachusetts residents will have the opportunity to received legal advice today through the Massachusetts Bar Association’s semi-annual Dial-A-Lawyer call-in program. Volunteer lawyers from the MBA will field calls from 4 to 7 p.m. from residents in Franklin County and all of western Massachusetts. The advice is free and provided as a public service.
If you get a busy signal, hang up and try again. Normal telephone charges will apply.
“Many people in Massachusetts face unmet legal needs because their work schedules or other commitments prevent them from connecting with a lawyer, or they are unsure of where to go for help,” said MBA President Christopher A. Kenney. “Our Western Mass. Dial-A-Lawyer program provides local residents with free and convenient access to a knowledgeable team of volunteer lawyers, who help us fulfill our continued commitment to increasing access to justice across the state.”
If you would like free legal advice, call 413-782-1659. This phone number will only be active from 4 to 7 p.m. today.
