The Volunteer Lawyers Program is a pro bono program sponsored by the Mobile Bar Association and was formally organized in 1987. Today, about 650 area lawyers provide free legal services to low-income citizens of Mobile County in certain civil matters (click to see what kinds). If you are a Mobile County resident with a legal problem and believe you may qualify as low-income under the program's financial guidelines, please call the program office at (251) 438-1102. You may also download the Application and Eligibility form. (Adobe Acrobat* required) In addition to the Volunteer Lawyers Program, a list of referral agencies for possible legal assistance can be found here. For online information and some do-it-yourself forms on family law, public benefits, health law, consumer issues, housing law, and elder law, go to Legal Services Alabama's website at www.alabamalegalhelp.org.
