• What costs and administrative burdens will the case impose in relation to available ACLU of Oklahoma staff and funds?

• Are volunteer attorneys available?

Keep in mind that the ACLU of Oklahoma does NOT generally accept these types of case:

• A person has been fired from a job without a good reason or just cause;

• Domestic matters (divorce, child custody, wills, etc.);

• A person is being denied benefits, such as workers’ compensation, unemployment benefits, or Social Security;

• Landlord / tenant disputes;

• Immigration matters; and,

• Criminal cases or complaints about a person’s attorney in a criminal case — the ACLU considers accepting criminal cases only in limited instances, such as, for example, when a person is being prosecuted for engaging in activity protected by the Constitution – such as participating in a political demonstration or where the statute or ordinance under which the person is charged is subject to constitutional attack.

Please consider the above before filing a complaint. Even if your complaint falls within the above guidelines, filing a complaint does not guarantee that the ACLU of Oklahoma will provide legal assistance. Before any legal assistance can be offered, a written agreement must be entered into and signed by an ACLU of Oklahoma representative.
