The Memphis Bar Association (MBA) Veterans’ Committee, in conjunction with Memphis Area Legal Services (MALS), is starting a monthly legal clinic on the last Tuesday of each month in order to assist veterans with their civil legal needs, including child support/visitation, landlord/tenant, employment, and debtor/creditor issues. No special expertise with VA benefits is needed.

The first clinic will be held on Tues., March 26 from noon until 2 p.m. at 1407 Union Ave., Suite 815, which is the building next to the Krystal’s on Union. Parking is available in the building’s garage and will be validated. The Veterans' Committee anticipates holding a training session prior to or shortly after the March 26th clinic. Please watch the Memphis Bar Bulletin or memphisbar.org for more information.
If you are interested in volunteering at this clinic, please contact Anne Fritz at (901)527-3575 or at afritz@memphisbar.org. Attorneys must complete a simple registration process in order to participate and be covered by MALS' legal malpractice insurance. Thank you in advance for helping the veterans who have served so that we can enjoy our freedom and the legal system we have today!
