HOW TO CONTACT US

Prisoners' Legal Services of New York provides free legal services to New York State prisoners. The decision to assist with any particular case depends on the issue or problem presented, the chance of success, the amount of time and resource necessary to properly assist, the office's resources, staff availability and caseload. We are also happy to provide self-help and informational materials to prisoners.
