Kitsap Legal Services provides civil legal advice and information to the residents of Kitsap County experiencing economic hardship. Even if you were earning a good income last year, KLS helps people whose current income is 200% of the national poverty level (a little more than $2,000 per month for a family of one). Typical requests involve family law, housing, and debt/bankruptcy. However, the help they can provide depends on the specialties of their current volunteer attorneys.
Safe appointments are available. Just call KLS at 360-479-6125 or email [email protected]. If you qualify for services, you will meet with a volunteer attorney by phone or video conference.
Are you anticipating a problem when the Eviction Moratorium is lifted?Joanne Sprague, Executive Director, advises: “We are currently ramping up our Housing Justice Project in anticipation of a deluge of eviction cases after the Eviction Moratorium is lifted. We encourage tenants anticipating an eviction to reach out as soon as possible.”
Many GSJones Law Group attorneys volunteer with Kitsap Legal Services.
KLS always welcomes legal volunteers and donations.
