Testimonials

 

"The SLS team helped me feel comfortable in their office in a time when I was otherwise very stressed out. They clarified the legal issue I was facing and helped me understand what steps I needed to take. I feel very grateful to have had the opportunity to utilize this service, as it made the whole process much easier and less stressful, and will be certain to recommend SLS to any students I know that could benefit from it."

 

 

"It's a really scary feeling to know that you could potentially be suspended from your university... I found myself in this precarious situation with very little faith that things would be okay... My friends spoke so highly of you and after our first consultation, I knew that I was in the right hands...Thank you for working endlessly to help me[,] witholding any judgment and supporting me unconditionally."

 

 

"I was extremely satisfied with the outcome of my legal case. I did not expect the outcome to be as good as it is. The legal services I received was the best I could have received from anywhere in the state. I am so blessed that a friend recommended the Student Legal Services to me. I did not feel ANY issue of insensitivity from the legal services office.
