Services
Student Legal Services can provide legal advice and referrals, educate you about your responsibilities and rights, negotiate disputes, help you prepare for small claims court, and represent you in other courts. Student Legal Services staff is also available to make presentations to UW student groups on legal areas of interests. Student often bring the following matters to SLS:
 |
Traffic tickets or problems with towing Car or bike accidents Landlord/Tenant disputes |
Marital or relationship issues Simple wills or estate planning |
 |
 |
Consumer or contract complaints Criminal matters Credit problems Bankruptcy Intellectual property Immigration |
Although they are supervised by experienced attorneys, the legal interns helping you have only a limited license to practice law and cannot handle all matters. Even if SLS can't handle your case, we will give you general information and refer you to a lawyer referral service, agency, or other helpful resource. SLS does not provide representation beyond the free 30-minute consultation in certain areas:
