Before we start: is this about a criminal charge?
How this works

Answer a few short questions. We point you to the Maine organization that best fits your situation and take you to their intake. We don't ask your name and nothing is saved.

What you'll see

  • Start here — the best first place to begin, based on your answers.
  • Start intake — opens that organization's application or contact form.
  • Call — reach them directly by phone.

This tool is for civil (non-criminal) legal problems. If you've been charged with a crime, we'll point you to criminal-defense help instead.

Is this about a criminal charge?

Being arrested, charged, or prosecuted is a criminal matter. Civil legal aid covers things like housing, benefits, family, money, and immigration paperwork — not criminal defense.

We don't ask for your name and we don't save your answers.

This tool gives legal information and helps you find help. It is not a lawyer and does not give legal advice.
