Welcome

Statewide Legal Services is a telephone hotline helping callers with legal problems in Connecticut. We talk to callers about many different non-criminal legal problems. Some of the problems we can talk to you about include family, employment, public benefits, housing and consumer problems like bankruptcy. There is no charge for our services, but we can only help people with very low income.

If you are eligible for our services, we would provide advice to help you with your legal problem. We might also refer you to another legal aid office or to a Pro Bono attorney.
