Help with Cases

Case Consultation

NCLC consults with consumer attorneys and legal aid advocates across the country on complex student loan cases. Consumer attorneys can email NCLC to request assistance. For more information about our litigation, co-counseling, and expert witness services, visit our Litigation page on our main website.


Student Loan Law Listservs

NCLC has two student loan law listservs that are open to attorneys and advocates working on behalf of consumers, including those who work for legal services and other nonprofit agencies and National Association of Consumer Advocates (NACA) members.


Legal Aid Support & Monthly Meetings

NCLC hosts monthly meetings for legal aid advocates who are interested in learning more about student loan law, currently handle student loan cases, or want to stay up to date on the latest student loan news. To attend these meetings, you must first sign up for the legal aid student loan listserv by contacting this email. Meetings are held over Zoom on the Third Tuesday of the Month, from 1:00 pm EST to 2:30 pm EST. 


Student Loans Listserv
This listserv discusses aspects of the student loan system and best practices for providing legal services for student loan borrowers. Although there is no censoring of the issues to be discussed, this group generally focuses on student loan issues that affect low-income borrowers. Frequent topics within this group include: predatory schools, student loan servicer misconduct, administrative loan discharges, bankruptcy and collection practices.

Legal Aid Student Loan Advocates Listserv
This list is open to legal aid advocates who are interested in learning more about student loan law, currently handle student loan cases, or want to stay up to date on the latest student loan news. In addition to general student loan discussion, agendas and materials for legal aid student loan coalition meetings will be sent to this list.
