Access Justice Brooklyn - CLARO Consumer Debt Clinic

Civil Legal Advice and Resource Office (CLARO)

The Civil Legal Advice and Resource Office (CLARO) is a service where unrepresented consumers can obtain free information about debt collection matters. Brooklyn’s CLARO program is a joint project of Access Justice Brooklyn and Brooklyn Law School, with the collaboration of Mobilization for Justice and the New Economy Project. It was created in cooperation with Kings County Civil Court to address the needs of unrepresented consumer debt litigants.
