Legal Services Program for Individuals

The Legal Services Program (LSP) serves claimants and small emplo​yers regarding an Appeal hearing​ or Board of Review (Spanish​) matter.

Typically, the decisions and orders that are appealed relate to eligibility and chargeability for unemployment insurance benefits, appealable tax determinations, and other matters. 

Program Services Include: 

• Up to one hour of free consultation with a LSP attorney regarding your case, and
  
• If the attorney determines that you have a valid claim or defense, the LSP attorney will also represent you in an appeal hearing and at the Board of Review.
