Spanish legal advice program Consejos Legales returns May 7

The Mexican-American Bar Association of Houston and the Hispanic Bar Association of Houston, in partnership with the Houston Bar Association, will offer Consejos Legales every first Thursday of the month beginning on May 7 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The program returns in response to the need for legal information and resources in the Spanish-speaking community during the COVID-19 pandemic. Spanish-speaking members of the public can sign up online to have a lawyer call back with legal advice and other resources in a number of legal areas including unemployment; eviction; the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic (CARES) Act; the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (FFCRA); and more.

For free legal advice over the phone, go to HBA.org/LegalLine to select an available time slot or call 713-759-1133 for more information.
