Legal Services Program

IDES contracts with private law firms to provide free legal services (consultation and/or representation at IDES administrative hearings) to claimants and small employers who are eligible. These independent law firms are not part of IDES. Representation at your hearing is not automatic and depends, in part, upon the facts in your case.​
