Service Information
Connecticut Legal Services(CLS) is a not for profit law firm dedicated to improving the lives of low-income people by providing access to justice. CLS is a law firm, a social services agency, and a community resource that solves urgent problems affecting low-income people. We do not handle criminal casesif poor people are charged with a crime, they generally are entitled to a free public defender (provided by the government). But for most other kinds of cases, low-income people do not have a government-funded lawyer, and they usually cannot afford to pay for a private attorney. Most often, poor people only have access to a lawyer if they can get help from a legal aid lawyer.
