I have used student legal services (SLS for us regulars) multiple times and have come away more than pleased both times. I'm sure every Michigan student has at least heard of Douglas "The Cowboy" Lewis (Pictured Below). That man got me out of 2 noise violations and saved even more money for my roommate.
I also had to go in to SLS last week because apparently our landlord is not a big fan of the BOX letter's and the Campus Corner sign. We got a notice from our landlord on Monday, that we had until Wednesday to remove the signs or they would dispose of them. Well, the fine people at SLS looked through our contract and made some calls, before telling us that we had no legal avenue to keep the box sign up. So Al and I went down to our landlord and busted some heads until they agreed to allow us to keep the Box sign if we remove the Campus Corner Sign. I count it as a victory for us, SLS, Box and America.
By the way, I don't think people use SLS to the full extent that they should. I'm going to have them write me a will, file some patents I've been thinking about, do the paperwork to change my name to Pizzapussysanta and a whole bunch of other stuff. Maybe I will get them to write a disclaimer for my Blog. It's legal advice and its free! Make way, I got people to sue.
