*Red indicates a VA Medical Legal Partnership

*Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many of the legal clinics listed below are no longer operating on-site at VA facilities. However - most legal providers are still providing legal services available to Veterans by phone or email. To

seek assistance on a legal matter, Veterans may call or email a legal services provider listed below in their area.*

Note: The VA contacts listed below are NOT attorneys and therefore incoming email is not attorney client privileged nor a secure form of communication. These VA contacts can provide additional information about the legal clinics operating in their facilities, but they cannot give legal advice, determine your eligibility for a legal clinic, or schedule a legal clinic appointment for you.
