Legal Assistance: NH Legal Services & Programs

http://www.nhbar.org

 
 

NH Bar Association Legal Service Program offer services to low income households through their different referral programs. They also have an excellent program for women who are DOMESTIC VIOLENCE emergencies through the Dove Project. This is the lawyer referral serviceI used when dealing with my post-divorce domestic violence issues and highly recommend it for any woman who is experiencing threats against her life or her children from her ex. I have included all the links below to the many services NH offers to women and men who may be be in a low income brackett and cannot afford to pay for legal services on their own.

I also include a special link to B.A.C.A., a national organization with members stationed right here in NH. If you and your children need extra safety support due to domestic violence issues, these are the people who can help. I urge you to visit their website, moms, you will be glad you did.

   

Reduced-Fee Referral Program is a program that connects lower-income people who are able to pay something for attorney fees, with lawyers who provide their legal services at a reduced rate.

Franklin Pierce Legal Clinic offers legal representation for clients who otherwise cannot afford it. Their Law students have represented clients in District, Superior, Federal and Bankruptcy courts; and handled a variety of cases including landlord/tenant issues, consumer protection, debtor/creditor relations, child advocacy, worker's compensation, defense of foreclosure, repossession and collection actions, impact litigation for low income clients, and criminal defense. Experienced faculty members oversee the programs the students are involved with. I highly recommend their services if you find yourself in a position where you cannot handle civil matters on your own.

For Child Abuse Issues:  
BACA Mission Statement  
Bikers Against Child Abuse (BACA) exists with the intent to create a safer environment for abused children. We exist as a body of Bikers to empower children to not feel afraid of the world in which they live. We stand ready to lend support to our wounded friends by involving them with an established, united organization. We work in conjunction with local and state officials who are already in place to protect children. We desire to send a clear message to all involved with the abused child that this child is part of our organization, and that we are prepared to lend our physical and emotional support to them by affiliation, and our physical presence. We stand at the ready to shield these children from further abuse. We do not condone the use of violence or physical force in any manner, however, if circumstances arise such that we are the only obstacle preventing a child from further abuse, we stand ready to be that obstacle.
