Beginning on May 27, 2024, we are expanding the travel guidelines to allow travel on all levels of certificates when the client has preferred counsel. Offering travel options to clients’ chosen lawyers ensures equitable access to legal representation.
We are addressing a critical challenge for rural clients who face barriers to accessing their chosen counsel due to geographical limitations. This change broadens their options and ensures clients can work with their preferred counsel regardless of where and what their legal issues are.
Expanded travel guidelines, complemented by a user-friendly lawyer directory, will transform how clients find and choose a legal aid lawyer.
