The event begins at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 18, at the Abrams Public Health Center, 3950 S. Country Club Road, according to a Pima County Superior Court news release.

Two sessions will be offered and will cover three topics: Divorce/child support, probate/guardianship/conservatorship and debtor/creditor and landlord/tenant, the release said.

Attendees can choose from one of the three topics during either the first session, which will run from 4:00 to 5:30 p.m., or the second session, which will run from 5:45 to 7:45 p.m.

Participants are invited to attend both sessions.

Some of the participating attorneys will start with a presentation and others will go right into questions and answers, according to Pima County Superior Court Judge John Assini.

“It’s not one-on-one advice on your particular case, so people have to understand that coming in,� Assini said. “Each section allows people to ask general questions and on a hypothetical basis, (attorneys) answer questions about how (a case) would work.�

Many of the participating attorneys have attended the event — which is sponsored by Pima County Superior Court and the Pima County Bar Association — since its inception nearly five years ago.

These local attorneys will provide attendees with comprehensive handouts particular to their topic, Krisanne LoGalbo, a court spokeswoman, said in an email.

“The handouts are great and then just the ability to be able to hear how it would affect your case and your issues,� Assini said. “If somebody wants to get concentrated information, I think these sessions are brought to a level that everyone can understand — you don’t have to be a lawyer.�

A team with the office of the state attorney general will be offering one-on-one assistance regarding child support calculations, and representatives from the court’s Law Library will be offering information about legal research databases and access to online forms.

“The information from each section or group is so unique to that area of law,� Assini added. “It’s a good evening if you want to concentrate on an area of law that’s affecting you.�

For language-interpretative assistance other than Spanish, the news release says to call 724-3888.
