Program/Service Notes:
Since March of 1991, the Massachusetts Bar Association has sponsored a Dial-A-Lawyer program that encourages members of the public to call the program with their legal problems and questions. This program was created in order to assist the people of Massachusetts that have fallen through the cracks of the legal and criminal justice system.
The mission of the program is to assist anyone and everyone, but particularly those who are not eligible for free legal services or cannot afford to hire a lawyer.
On the first Wednesday of each month, attorneys volunteer at the MBA’s Boston headquarters by providing free, basic legal information by phone to callers from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Questions cover a wide range of legal topics. Additionally, twice a year the program is offered specifically to the general public in Western Massachusetts.
The attorneys handle many types of cases. There are many different types legal issues with which Dial-a-Lawyer attorneys can provide assistance. For example, attorneys are able to answer questions regarding family law, bankruptcy, real estate, labor and consumer rights.
