Included in this list are organizations that provide free or low-cost legal services to victims and survivors of abuse, as well as to others who qualify. Even if the organization does not have a lawyer available to represent you in court, you may want to ask if there is a lawyer with whom you can consult to obtain advice. We list the organizations by the county where the office is located, but many offices serve multiple counties. We indicate the “counties served” whenever possible. You can click “View All” to look through the complete list of organizations.
Please note: WomensLaw does not have a relationship with or promote the organizations listed on these pages. Because we include thousands of resources, we cannot review them regularly or vouch for the information or services they provide. We share these resources to help all victims and survivors of abuse find essential direct services and support their needs and safety concerns.

Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence Virtual Legal Clinic
URL: https://www.ilcadv.org/virtual-legal-clinic/ The Virtual Legal Clinic provides domestic violence survivors with free, confidential, face-to-face consultations with attorneys via online technologies. Victims set up appointments through their local domestic violence agency and connect from a computer in a private room set aside by the agency. The attorney connects from his/her office anywhere in the state to provide legal advice on a limited-scope basis for approximately one-hour. Common topics covered in these consultations include divorce, custody, property, money, employment, immigration, and abuse.
