Individual law students are not permitted to provide legal advice to the public. Students must be supervised in a formal clinical setting or by a pro bono attorney in order to provide research assistance. Unrepresented individuals may wish to refer to www.palawhelp.org for assistance with specific legal matters in Pennsylvania.
