It seeks to provide quality pro bono legal services to increasing numbers of clients throughout Minnesota, so they can focus their time and resources on pursuing their objectives.For individual business owners and for nonprofit organizations that meet its guidelines for eligibility, LegalCORPS can recruit attorneys to provide free legal assistance for their non-litigation business law matters. The attorney-client relationship for full-representation assistance is the same as it would be for a fee-paying arrangement.LegalCORPS conducts a number of regularly scheduled free brief-advice business law clinics, at which participants can receive up to 30 minutes of consultation on their business law issues. Some clinics are conducted in person; some are conducted via video conference. If circumstances prevent people from attending in-person or video conference clinics, LegalCORPS can try to arrange a brief-advice session by phone.
