Lower Mainland – Many Lower Mainland residents face legal problems that they cannot easily resolve alone. Furthermore, accessing and making sense of the legal system can oftentimes be difficult and intimidating, especially for low-income earners who cannot afford to hire a lawyer. Fortunately for these individuals the Law Students’ Legal Advice Program (LSLAP) is here to help. LSLAP is a non-profit organization that offers free legal advice for low-income earners throughout the Lower Mainland. We have been operating clinics for over 35 years, each year providing free legal advice and representation to approximately 4,000 individuals. UBC law students, working under the guidance of supervising lawyers, provide legal expertise in various areas of law, including criminal matters, small claims, residential tenancy and many more. Areas that we cannot provide assistance in include family law, immigration, business law and real property issues. LSLAP is currently one of British Columbia's largest legal aid organizations and the demand for our services continues to grow.We currently have 20 legal advice clinic locations throughout the Lower Mainland. People in need of legal assistance can make an appointment with us by calling (604) 822-5791. -30- If you have any questions or for more information about LSLAP please feel free to contact our Public Relations Director at (604) 822-5723 or email: pr@lslap.bc.ca
