The Livingston Parish Library will host a Lawyers in Libraries event at its Main Branch on two dates this month, giving the public a chance to discuss their legal concerns with a licensed attorney at no cost.
Lawyers in Libraries is a statewide program that connects the public with attorneys through local libraries. It is a partnership between the Louisiana State Bar Association (LSBA), the State Library of Louisiana, and the Louisiana Library Association.
The event will take place as follows:
Attorneys will answer questions on a wide range of civil legal topics, including bankruptcy, civil lawsuits, collection matters, custody, divorce, evictions, FEMA and disaster benefits, food stamps, foreclosures, housing, Medicaid, Social Security, SSI/SSDI, successions, taxes, and wills.
The clinic does not handle criminal matters.
Registration is required, and participants must be 18 or older. To register, visit https://mylpl.libcal.com/.
