What are good options for affordable consultations on U.S. law that can be reached from overseas?
<p>I have a U.S. legal problem and would like to know if there are places I could either call or email to get some legal advice relatively cheaply?  Unfortunately I am outside of the U.S., so visiting an office in the U.S. is not an option.</p>

<p>This is regarding civil law in an educational setting.</p>

<p>Where I live, there are lawyers appointed by public offices that give free legal advice over the phone/email/visitation.  Is there anything like that in the U.S.?</p>

<p>You might try reaching out to the <a href="http://www.edlawcenter.org/" rel="nofollow">Education Law Center.</a> They may be able to provide information, or a referral to another organization or law office. Intake information is on the <a href="http://www.edlawcenter.org/about/contact-us.html" rel="nofollow">contact page</a>.</p>
