Charleston Legal Access is one of several nonprofit and legal service organizations that are partnering with law firms in an effort to provide small businesses with answers to their questions about federal stimulus program benefits and other legal issues arising out of the pandemic.

Through its Lowcountry COVID-19 Small Business/Non-Profit Legal Clinic, Charleston Legal Access works with Am Law 100 firms Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough and Jackson Lewis as well as fellow nonprofit Lowcountry Local First to provide free legal advice to local businesses with 25 or fewer employees during 45-minute telephone or video calls. They also assist other nonprofit organizations.
