Monday Night Law is a community service program providing free consultations with volunteer lawyers. The consultation is a chance for you to discuss questions you may have about a legal issue or process, and an opportunity to have a lawyer help you figure out what to do next.

Volunteer lawyers can only help you with advice related to the following legal topics:

Employer and Employee Law
Divorce, Matrimonial and Family Law
Bankruptcy
Consumer Law
Landlord-Tenant
Small Business Matters

Call 212-626-7373 (Español 212-626-7374) to discuss your legal issue with an Attorney Referral Counselor at the New York City Bar Legal Referral Service.
