4/18/12 - GLBTQ Legal Clinic

One of the concerns that lgbtq people experience as we age is preparing for our later years and this includes preparing the legal documents of a Power of Attorney, Health Directive, POLST, domestic partnership and will. This is particularly important for lgbtq folks because of the discriminatory laws in various states as well as federal laws.  


However, we are fortunate to have the GLBT Legal Clinic here in Seattle which is part of the GLBT Bar Association Foundation of Washington and the King County Bar Association Neighborhood Legal Clinics.  This Clinic has a mission to provide GLBT friendly and knowledgeable volunteer attorneys to listen to your legal concerns.  


They state that they provide clients with a half hour of free one-on-one legal help on topics including: 
1. Job discrimination and harassment
2. Adoption and surrogacy
3. Transgender legal issues
4. Debt and bankruptcy
5. Relationship protection
6. Relationship dissolution


Times Available - The GLBT Clinic is held between 7.00 P.M. and 9.00 P.M. on the third Thursday of each month, my appointment only.  
To schedule an appointment, please call 206-235-7235.  A coordinator can be reached, and calls will be returned on Tuesdays between 12.00 P.M. and 3.00 P.M.
