Our Process

SET AN APPOINTMENT
Our Intake Specialists will take the relevant information and determine whether CVLS can help you with your problem. If it appears that you meet our basic guidelines, we will set an appointment for you.

GET LEGAL DIRECTION
A CVLS attorney will review your case and reach out within four weeks. If you have a court date scheduled before we contact you, you MUST attend. Tell the judge you are trying to find an attorney, and ask for a continuance.
