Clinics in St. Johnsbury
Vermont Legal Aid attorney Kelli Kazmarski is part of a rotating roster of volunteer lawyers who do free legal clinics at the Community Restorative Justice Center at 576 Railroad St., Suite 2, in St. Johnsbury. These are usually held on the first Monday of each month from 6 - 8 p.m. and an appointment is recommended. Call the Community Restorative Justice Center at 802-748-2977.
“The clinics are a way for people to sit face-to-face and talk with someone about their issues,” Kazmarski says.
Also in St. Johnsbury, Vermont Legal Aid attorney Maryellen Griffin holds a one-hour legal clinic to answer questions from tenants about renting issues. These are offered about two times each month at the St. Johnsbury HUB at 438 Railroad St, Suite 2. For the dates and times, visit the St. Johnsbury HUB calendar and look for “Tenant Rights Attorney.”
Griffin says, “Sometimes I’m just chatting informally with people. But I do have access to a room with privacy so if people want to come by and ask me for legal advice about their repair problems or evictions or applications for subsidized housing, I am there. No appointment needed.”
