Call the VLP

Our statewide Hotline is open for new client interviews at the following times:

Monday, Wednesday and Friday: 9:00 AM - Noon

Tuesday, Thursday: 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM

We are closed on all federal holidays.

Portland callers: 774-4348
All other callers: 1-800-442-4293

Please note that the above schedule is for new client telephone interviews only. If you want face-to-face help from our Portland Courthouse Assistance Project (CHAP), go to the Portland District Court on a Thursday afternoon, between 1 and 4 pm. These are only CHAP hours. This courthouse-based help is only for family law matters, such as divorce and parental rights cases. Go to information on CHAP in other parts of the state.

Please have all materials such as court notices or documents with you when you call.

VLP receives thousands of phone calls every year and often our phone lines cannot handle the volume. (All phone numbers reach the same system; it will not help you to get through if you call a different number.) If you cannot get through on the phone or if you cannot call during the hours we are open, please contact us by mail.
