Westchester CLARO
Westchester CLARO will be providing assistance via telephone until further notice. Please call 877-574-8529 so that our partner, Legal Services of the Hudson Valley, can conduct a brief eligibility screening. If eligible, CLARO will connect you with a volunteer attorney for a phone appointment during regular CLARO hours (2-4pm on Thursdays).
We recommend you come to CLARO as soon as you become aware that there is a case against you, if possible before filing your Answer with the court. If you have already filed your Answer don’t worry, just come to CLARO as soon as you can – the earlier the better. And if you only realize there’s a case against you once a default judgment has been entered and your wages or bank account are being garnished, it’s not too late – CLARO can still help.
HOW TO FIND US & WHAT TO BRING
Please see note above regarding additional services by phone.
Thursdays, 2 P.M. – 4 :30 P.M.
