Where can I find free legal services in Illinois?

My daughter might be facing statutory rape charges and cannot afford a lawyer.

1. If your daughter cannot afford a lawyer and is facing a serious charge like that, the state will provide legal representation without cost. Illinois Legal Aid does a good job. For more information about them, click on the Web page below. http://www.illinoislegalaid.org/ But remember, if your daughter is charged, she should *immediately* insist on talking to a lawyer, who will be provided for her. I recommend that she make no statement at all until she and her lawyer discuss the matter, and she should be very clear that she wants a lawyer. I wish you and your daughter well.
