Free Legal & Resource Fair Returns to Shreveport
AARP Louisiana in collaboration with Louisiana Appleseed, Acadiana Legal Service Corporation (ALSC), and Shreveport Public Assembly and Recreation (SPAR), is excited to announce the return of the highly acclaimed Free Legal Fair to Shreveport. The event will take place on Saturday, December 7, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Morning Star Baptist Church, located at 5340 Jewella Ave, Shreveport, LA 71109.
This community-focused event aims to provide residents with access to essential legal services and information. Attendees will have the opportunity to receive assistance from representatives of the Louisiana Department of Health, Louisiana Department of Insurance, SPAR, the Caddo Council on Aging, the VA, and the Caddo Assessor's Office.
Lorri Lucas, director of advocacy & outreach for AARP Louisiana, shared, “We're honored to collaborate with such esteemed organizations, empowering individuals with the knowledge and support needed for informed decisions regarding estate planning and wealth creation for future generations.”
Attorney Jonathan Reynolds will lead a workshop on the basics of estate planning, covering essential topics such as legal terminology, document storage, and effective communication with attorneys. “People spend their entire lives working to build a legacy,” says Reynolds. “We want these presentations to give people the legal knowledge they need and empower them to secure that legacy.”
Acadiana Legal Service Corporation (ALSC), which serves 42 parishes in central and north Louisiana, will be on-site providing free estate planning services.
