Talk to a Lawyer Hotline

An hour and a half of your time can make a real difference.

The Talk to a Lawyer Hotline connects Southern Indiana residents with volunteer legal professionals who can answer brief civil legal questions, provide general guidance, and help callers identify their next steps. The program is administered by the Volunteer Lawyer Program of Southwestern Indiana, in partnership with the EBA and with support from the Evansville Bar Foundation.

When is the Hotline?

Talk to a Lawyer is offered twice each month:

• First Thursday: 4:30–6:00 p.m. CT
• Third Tuesday: 11:30 a.m.–1:00 p.m. CT

Volunteer

EBA attorney and paralegal members are encouraged to volunteer. You don’t have to know the answer to every question—you simply bring your experience and a willingness to help. Volunteers assist callers with a variety of civil legal questions, and when an issue can’t be resolved through brief advice, callers can be directed to additional resources.

Whether you volunteer once or make Talk to a Lawyer a regular part of your pro bono service, your time helps expand access to legal assistance in our community.

Indiana Free Legal Answers

Indiana Free Legal Answers is a virtual legal advice clinic where you can volunteer anytime, day or night, from where ever you happen to be. At this clinic, low-income Hoosiers post their legal questions, and volunteer attorneys choose which questions they want to answer. Topics include family law, housing and eviction; consumer and debt, employment, health and disability, civil rights, and public benefits.
