We are a non-profit legal clinic offering free legal help to people living on a low income in Hastings, Prince Edward, and southern Lennox & Addington counties and Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory, in southeastern Ontario.  Please call us if you need help, or reach us by mail or email (see our Contact Us page).  An appointment is not needed but is recommended.

We publish our newsletters twice a year, once in the spring and again in the fall.  In our fall 2023 edition, read about our OPEN HOUSE on Nov 30 (celebrating over 40 years of community lawyering), rent increases for 2024, employment news about the minimum wage and the Workplace Safety & Insurance Board, reporting income to Ontario Works and ODSP,  and more!
