Free Legal Services in Minneapolis Area
Everyone always says "Get a Lawyer," as if it is some task akin to going to the grocery store for milk and eggs. And while there are plenty of options here in Minneapolis, those choices tend to dwindle when one is confronted with an acute lack of money. But, thankfully, there are organizations that can help you when you need it most.
