The U.S. District Court, the Eastern District of Michigan Chapter of the Federal Bar Association and the Wolverine Bar Association are jointly hosting a Law Day open house on Tuesday, May 1.
The open house will take place from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. at the Theodore Levin United States Courthouse in Detroit, Michigan.
The theme of Law Day 2012 is “No Courts, No Justice, No Freedom” and underscores the importance of the courts and their role in ensuring access to justice for all Americans.
Among the many featured exhibits will be bomb-sniffing dogs, counterfeit currency and confiscated firearms.
The complimentary program is open to the public and includes an “Ask the Lawyer” pro bono program.
The program is held by the U.S. District Court in conjunction with the Detroit Chapter of the Federal Bar Association and the Wolverine Bar Association.
Volunteer lawyers will be at the courthouse to give free legal advice to people who do not have lawyers and who have questions related to specific case types such as employment, civil rights, fraud, truth in lending, product liability, etc.
These volunteer lawyers will only provide legal advice.
