| Colorado Judicial Department holding free Legal Resource Days |
Tuesday, October 12, 2021
If you’re representing yourself in a court matter or have questions on legal issues such as estate planning, family law, landlord-tenant issues or sealing records, or you just need a little help navigating court processes, you may find answers in one of the free Legal Resource Days events coming up this month.
With sponsorship by the Colorado Judicial Institute, 11 judicial districts around Colorado are offering in-person and videoconference or teleconference sessions covering a variety of court-related topics.
