Legal Information Centre



As of May 26, 2004, the Montreal Gay and Lesbian Community Centre (CCGLM) offers a free and confidential Legal Information Centre (LIC) to the local gay, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual and transgender community.

LIC's mission is to assist those with legal questions in their search for relevant information. Our bilingual team of volunteer law students will take your queries by phone or e-mail. We will research your questions and provide you with relevant legal information and some suggestions.

Please note that LIC does not provide legal advice and that any information you may obtain from LIC never replaces professionnal advice by an attorney. By accepting to use LIC, you agree to the terms of this disclaimer. If you need legal advice, please consult an attorney. Should you need assistance in finding legal counsel, LIC will be pleased to refer you to an attorney who is sensitive to the particular needs of GLBT clients.

You can reach LIC every Wednesday evening from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at (514) 528-8424 or via e-mail at  info@ccglm.org  (Please leave a phone number. We will be providing information over the phone.) 

We look forward to assisting you!
