We would like to remind all of our clients and NAN members that our Community Legal Workers now have a tool to help them provide you with better service. Nishnawbe-Aski Legal Services and ProBono Law Ontario launched the "Ask a Lawyer" website almost a year ago. While it is still in its initial stages, this site helps the CLWs write down any legal questions you have asked them and then have them forwarded to a panel of volunteer lawyers who specialize in certain legal fields such as:
- Family Law
- Criminal Law
- Child Welfare
- Youth Justice
- Aboriginal and Treaty Rights
- Employment Contracts
- Landlord/Tenant Issues
- Consumer Law
- Senior's Legal Issues
- Administrative Law (i.e. Birth Certificates)
All of this happens over the internet. This will allow our CLWs to get answers to your questions faster than ever before!
If you have any questions you wish to submit to the Ask-A-Lawyer website, please feel free to e-mail me at nanlegal%23on%23ca|mjloon. All questions are posted anonymously.
CLWs can click on this link to access the website: http://askalawyer.nanlegal.on.ca/
