On Tuesday nights the WV State Bar operates the Tuesday Legal Connect. Volunteer lawyers take calls from the public, and offer legal information. Every Tuesday evening from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., lawyers volunteer their time to answer questions that are presented by the public toll free over the phone or using their computer or smart device. Volunteer lawyers take calls from the public and assess:
- Whether the caller really does have a legal problem.
- Whether there are some simple steps the caller can take to try to solve their problem without a lawyer.
- Whether the caller really does need to have a lawyer to help them.
The volunteer lawyers can provide general legal information, but they cannot provide direct legal advice or legal assistance about your case. To reach the Tuesday Legal Connect, call 1-800-642-3617.
If you would like to volunteer for Tuesday Legal Connect as an attorney, contact Kelly Elswick at 304-343-3013 ext. 2129.
