For those of you who already practice consumer law, please consider the NCLC Litigation Project for referrals of appropriate cases or potential co-counseling agreements. We can help you evaluate your case and put together the best possible team to win your case. We also hope that you will make yourselves available when, and if, we need to contact you for support, assistance and participation.
For those of you who had your consumer law practices constrained because of Legal Services Corporation funding restrictions, we still can work together, as we traditionally have for over 30 years, on behalf of low income and elderly individuals. You are on the front line, in the trenches. As a direct service provider, you can be our eyes and ears in a way that we never can. If you pick up on a suspicious business practice or a worrisome consumer trend through your clients and their cases, think of us for a potential referral. By assembling an appropriate team, we may be able to achieve an expedited systemic remedy that will spare you from a long, inefficient, case-by-case response. For those of you who have not yet become involved in a consumer law practice, you will not be alone when you do jump in. NCLC will be there too, fighting this important fight by your side. The stakes are too high for low income and elderly consumers for any of us to stay on the sideline. The time has come for us to enter the fray. Together, we will make a difference.
