The Oakland County Bar Association’s People’s Law College was conducted on Tuesday, April 2, at the Jack & Patti Salter Community Center in Royal Oak. This free event is designed to help educate members of the community on different areas of the law and to assist attendees in finding answers to their legal questions with first-hand insight from Oakland County attorneys. Taking part in the April 2 session were (l-r) Dustin Foster of Cooley Law School; Rochester attorney Mona Jabr, vice chair of OCBA’s Providing Access to Legal Services Committee; Mark Harper of Gifford, Krass, Sprinkle, Anderson, & Citkowski PC; Syeda Davidson and Paula Zimmer of Lakeshore Legal Aid; Marc Jerabek of Plunkett Cooney; and Southfield attorney Ray Correll. There were four seminar sessions on the topics of Landlord/Tenant Issues; Social Security Benefits, Retirement, and Disability; Driver’s License Restoration and Expungements; and Debt Solution. A free Ask-a-Lawyer session was also held for the duration of the program. The Ask-a-Lawyer portion allows attendees to speak privately with a volunteer attorney about their personal questions and concerns. The attorneys are able to discuss topics including juvenile, family, probate, criminal, general civil and landlord/tenant matters.
