    Indiana Legal Help is a project of the Coalition for Court Access, a coalition established by the Indiana Supreme Court in 2016 to provide organization for Indiana’s civil legal aid programs. Their website has free self-help forms and resources for Hoosiers wishing to file many different cases and has information about hiring attorneys.
