The service will visit several Montreal boroughs throughout the summer.

The goal is to give Montrealers more access to the justice system during the city’s 375th anniversary.

Juripop is a non-profit organization that gives access to legal services for people who can’t cover their own fees and don’t qualify for government help.

Clients must be in financial need to qualify for their assistance.
