About this organization
The University of Manitoba Community Law Centre has been part of LAM since 1972. The office primarily handles summary conviction offences. In addition, it may provide assistance for Highway Traffic Act offences, small claims cases that involve consumer problems and individual disputes with Manitoba Public Insurance.
The Centre is staffed by 50-100 second and third year law students who volunteer their time. Although students have primary responsibility for their file, they are supervised by a LAM staff lawyer. Members of the faculty and other Legal Aid staff are available to provide information or advice when matters require special expertise.
The Centre provides an important training function. Students refine their interviewing techniques, issue identification, problem solving, and negotiation and litigation skills.
A Manitoba Law Foundation annual grant is the primary funding source. With most of the labour donated, the cost per person assisted is less than $100.
When is it open?
University of Manitoba Community Law Centre is open Tuesdays from 10 am - 4 pm Fridays 1:00 pm 4:00 pm.
