The Plano Legal Aid clinic has been adopted by its new forever home! St. Andrew United Methodist Church at 5801 W. Plano Parkway, Plano, Texas has offered to sponsor this clinic at their location. They host the very large and successful 7 Loaves Food Pantry.

Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas is very excited at this new partnership. The church has offered to set up tables and provide food and drink much like it is done at the Allen clinic location.

The Plano clinic will continue to be on the 3rd Thursday of each month at 6:00pm. If you can help at this clinic in its new location, please let me know.

The Allen clinic is still being held in its original location at the First United Methodist church in Allen.

  Alternatives to Litigation. Litigation is an adversarial approach. It is very expensive, increases conflict and many times proves devastating to the children involved. The bad feelings from courtroom litigation can affect you and your children the rest of your lives. On the other hand, mediation or collaborative law can result in a settlement that is less expensive, less traumatic and more creative. The choices you make now can have an enormous immediate and long term effect on you and your children. Choose wisely. Click here for more information.
