Self-help centres are free walk-in clinics created to help people help themselves. Litigants receive personal assistance with legal forms and information seeking redress without a lawyer. The centre does NOT provide legal advice or representation. Rather, it is a resource center with information, books, and PEOPLE available to guide a person through the court process. Self-help legal access centres provide legal information and assistance to unrepresented individuals seeking help in family law, housing, injunctions and other civil matters. The Los Angeles Legal Aid Foundation`s Self-Help Legal Access Centers offer self-represented litigants assistance to: Do you help with affidavits or probate questions? As a volunteer, you will work directly with litigants. They help litigants complete family and housing court paperwork.

Antelope Valley Los Angeles Superior Court 42011 4th Street West, Room 3700 Lancaster, CA 93534 I was on the phone with a law firm in San Francisco this morning and they are taking on new cases because they are piling up and not representatives in this area. I was advised to contact your offices and demand the best you could give me, because I was told that I had a very open and closed record of crimes and abuses committed against me by this management company. This question is very important because I am a veterinarian and I am ready for evictions with 2 other tenants. I can also apply to submit a prominent estate, my health, safety and property are threatened with destruction and the vet is homeless.
