Post #2 - LEGAL SERVICES:
Free disaster-related legal advice is available to low-income Louisiana flood survivors through a partnership among the Louisiana State Bar Association, the Louisiana Civil Justice Center, the American Bar Association Young Lawyers Division and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Low-income survivors facing legal issues may call the Legal Services hotline, 800-310-7029, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Voicemail is available 24/7 and messages are generally returned the next business day. Examples of legal assistance available include:
Assistance with securing FEMA and other benefits available to disaster survivors;
Assistance with life, medical and property insurance claims;
Help with home repair contracts and contractors;
Replacement of wills and other important legal documents that were destroyed;
Assisting in consumer protection matters, remedies and procedures;
Counseling on mortgage-foreclosure problems; and
Counseling on landlord/tenant problems.
The Southern University Law Center is looking to help anyone who has been flooded and are fighting with their landlord or people dealing with confusion about filling out paperwork. Southern has opened a disaster recovery law clinic just for flood victims who can not afford a lawyer. There will be volunteer attorneys, law center faculty and students to help people at the law school on Roosevelt Steptoe Drive. Free legal assistance is available Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., but there will also be extended hours from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. for people who can not make it during the day. They ask that people call (225) 771-3333 to make an appointment.
