Student Legal Services

The Student Association and the Graduate Student Organization fund a legal services program (Student Legal Services) for Syracuse University students. The services available under the program include advice and consultation on various legal problems and court appearances in certain situations by attorneys paid for by funds supplied from your student activity fee. This program is staffed and supervised by practicing attorneys. Since the attorneys work directly for the students and do not work for Syracuse University, all matters will be kept strictly confidential, and the program covers legal conflicts with the University. The staff includes two attorneys, a legal secretary and law clerks.

If you are a Syracuse University student (excluding law students) or a SUNY Environmental Science and Forestry student, have paid the student activity fee, and are registered on main campus, you are eligible for advice and representation as defined here. (As of the 2005-2006 academic year, all Syracuse University graduate students are eligible to use this service. We reserve the right to verify payment of the student activity fee before services are rendered). Part-time undergraduate students and law students are not eligible.
