North Country Tenants: Get Free Legal Help!

Questions about leases? 
Problems with a landlord? Concerns about maintenance?


Are you a tenant facing eviction or serious problems with your home? Our FREE legal helpline can help you with:

  • Filling out court documents, such as answers and emergency motions to reopen cases
  • Answering your legal questions about tenants’ rights

Tenants dealing with serious habitability issues (like lack of heat, water, or unsafe conditions) can also call to get help completing a petition to force repairs.
