The Knoxville Bar Association is pleased to announce that a Faith and Justice Legal Advice Clinic will be held on February 12, 2022 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at Cokesbury United Methodist Church, 9919 Kingston Pike, Knoxville, TN. The goal of the Faith and Justice Alliance is to build a coalition of faith leaders in the Knoxville area and to host legal advice clinics at places of worship to give people a less intimidating environment to talk to a lawyer. Participants in the Faith & Justice Alliance will invite congregants from their churches, synagogues, and mosques to bring their legal questions as well.
The Tennessee Faith & Justice Alliance is a project of the Tennessee Access to Justice Commission. In the Knoxville area, the program is coordinated by the Knoxville Bar Association’s Access to Justice Committee, Legal Aid of East Tennessee, the University of Tennessee College of Law, Lincoln Memorial University Duncan School of Law, and the generous lawyers, law students, and others volunteering their time and talent. This is a general advice and referral clinic with volunteers prepared to advise on a wide variety of legal issues, including family law, landlord/tenant, bankruptcy, criminal defense, consumer protection, contract disputes, child support, and personal injury, among other issues.

I am in need of legal advise about child adoption. Will there be lawyer’s available to help me to find the paperwork that I might be needing, and answer questions about how I should go about taking this child from his drug abusing, homeless, not working no income unmarried parents. That has tried sneaking and having child born in Kentucky, dur to the mother having had all the test of her 4+ children taken by the state.
