North Carolina legal aid providers remain open, responding to inquiries and resolving problems that impact the basic human needs of their clients, whether related to the current pandemic or not.

“While most staff are working remotely, attorneys are still going to court as necessary to protect the rights of clients,” says George Hausen, executive director of Legal Aid of North Carolina.

Hausen anticipates an increase in calls in the coming months related to employment, landlord-tenant and consumer issues, especially as the long-term impacts of the pandemic set in.

Hausen encourages those in need of help to reach out. Apply for help online at https://www.legalaidnc.org/ or on the Toll-Free Helpline: 1-866-219-LANC.
