Low-income individuals are more likely to die younger and without wills or advance directives in place—but you can help!
Attorneys, paralegalsand law students are needed as volunteers to do intake, conduct private legal consultations with qualified applicants, draft paperwork and witness document signing. Estate Planning attorneys are needed but non-probate-savvy attorneys will also be put to good use. Have a notary license? You're needed too!
Attorneys who cannot volunteer on October 16 may be needed for overflow representation following the event.
The Free Wills Clinic will be offered in a one-stop workshop format. At both locations, members of the public will:
- be qualified
- meet with an attorney
- get their documents drafted signed and witnessed
Free Wills Clinic details:
Tuesday, October 16, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
John Boner Neighborhood Centers and Indianapolis Public Library Haughville Branch
