The SALSA Veterans’ Legal Advice Clinic provides limited advice and counsel to low-income Veterans and their Dependent on a variety of civil legal matters. Volunteer commitment is limited to the clinic with no expectation of providing pro bono assistance beyond the clinic. The goal of the clinic is to provide the Veteran with guidance on how to address and/or advance their legal issue pro se. The vast majority of issues presented at the clinic are easily addressed with the basic legal knowledge possessed by any attorney. Volunteer attorneys do not need experience or knowledge in any particular area of the law; all specialties are needed and welcome. However, subject matter experts are on-call to consult for any nuanced issue that may arise.
