Tenants’ Equal Justice Clinic

Miami Alumni will partner with the Tenants’ Equal Justice Clinic on April 13, 2023 from 5:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. EST. Designed for volunteer attorneys to give free legal advice to low-income individuals whose landlord has not returned a security deposit or clients who are living in unsuitable, unsafe or unhealthy living conditions. Attorneys assist with initiating pro se Small Claims Court case or drafting letters to assist the client in curing legal issues that impede stable housing or habitability. Different types of cases include: security deposit, prohibited practices, and conditions cases.

One week before the clinic, Legal Services will send all the volunteers training materials and form templates to be reviewed. The day of the clinic there will only be a brief training, and then volunteers will start seeing clients right after that.

There will be a Happy Hour to follow! More information to come.
