Open to low income individuals who are financially eligible. Income must not exceed 300% above Federal Poverty level.

Calls are answered by an automated service. A Legal Line attorney or paralegal will return calls for legal matters they can assist with. If eligible for services, advice or a referral to an attorney will be provided.

Description

Handles bankruptcy cases in two ways: (1) through our joint program with the bankruptcy bench/bar and Rutgers Law School-Camden where attorneys work with law students to help our clients file for Chapter 7 and (2) through individual referrals directly through SJLS, outside of the Bankruptcy Project. Volunteer, private attorneys assist individuals who are in need of Chapter 7 bankruptcy assistance.
