Legal Resource Centers at DC Courts Provide Free Legal Information for Court Users

Did you know? DC Courts works with a number of partners across the city to provide court users with free legal help right here on the courts campus. Find information on each of these services below. Please note that these centers are not employed by DC Courts, and staff attorneys may therefore be able to provide legal advice/assistance.
