DEARBORN HEIGHTS — The city of Dearborn Heights will be hosting a free legal clinic for its residents at the end of the month.

The first legal clinic of 2024 will take place on Wednesday, Jan. 31 from 6 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. at the Dearborn Heights City Hall. Volunteer attorneys who specialize in landlord/tenant disputes, wills and estate planning will be on-hand during the event to meet individually with residents regarding their questions and concerns about those issues.

“We are pleased to host these free clinics as a service to our residents,” Dearborn Heights Corporation Counsel Roger Farinha said. “They serve as a valuable resource where our residents can receive no-cost, one-on-one advice on legal issues they are experiencing.”

This will be the second event of this kind hosted by the city. The first event took place in November and helped residents expunge lesser-serious infractions from their records. That event had more than 200 participants.

“We are looking forward to this one as we receive a number of inquiries from residents on these topics,” Mayor Bill Bazzi said. “We are looking forward to a busy, successful event. We are indebted to all those who come together to make these community events so successful.”

The Dearborn Heights City Hall is located at 6045 Fenton Street.

The city will continue to host more free clinics based on topics of interest and value to residents.
