Case types include custody, divorce and other contested family law matters.

The MLSC Judicare Project has established the maximum of $4,200 per case. The attorney case time rate is $120/hour and the paralegal (or other non-attorney) case time rate is $40/hourAttorneys also receive support of litigation expenses, training and mentoring support, all while making a difference for a low-income family in need.
