The Florida Bar has raised the income qualifying cap for its online legal clinic, Florida Free Legal Answers, to ensure that Floridians can access the site and post questions related to Hurricane Irma.
More than 500 attorneys signed up to volunteer for the site, (https://florida.freelegalanswers.org/), which ordinarily matches low-income Floridians with attorneys who can answer basic legal questions. The site is a collaboration between the Florida Bar and the American Bar Association, which approved the qualifying cap increase. Separately, a toll-free legal aid hotline run by the Federal Emergency Management Agency will be available once Hurricane Irma makes landfall.
