Across the country, only about 20% of individuals who qualify for legal aid services are receiving the services they need. Houston Volunteer Lawyers is trying to bridge that gap here in Harris County, and the Harris County Law Library is happy to host one of HVL's many legal clinics next Friday. The May 20 clinic is intended for self-represented litigants with limited means who are filing for divorce in Harris County. Anyone who wants to attend can register on the HVL website by completing the questionnaire at http://makejusticehappen.org/node/267/self-help-divorce-clinic.

Ex Libris Juris - HCLL Blog
What’s behind the name? “Ex Libris Juris” is Latin for “from the books of law” and much of the information here will relate to the legal information collected and curated by the Law Library. Additionally, “Ex Libris” has long appeared on bookplates – labels appearing inside the front cover of books – and has acquired the connoted meaning “from the library of” to show ownership of the book. Using this connotation, the phrase becomes “from the library of law” and better describes the posts about digital resources, event announcements, and research tips that will regularly appear here.
