Debt trouble? Your benefits have a lawyer for that.

Published On: October 16, 2026

Dealing with debt or financial hardship is stressful enough without worrying about the cost of getting legal help. If you’re exploring your options or wondering whether bankruptcy is right for you, your benefits may already have you covered.

Through the Massachusetts Laborers’ Legal Services Fund, eligible members have access to in-house attorneys who can advise you, represent you, and see your case through. You will not pay attorney fees. The Funds Office covers them. Out-of-pocket expenses are the client’s responsibility.

Our attorneys handle bankruptcy and debt-related matters, working with you to understand your options and make informed decisions every step of the way. Ready to move forward or just have questions, the team is here either way.

Do you qualify? Massachusetts Laborers need 300 eligible hours to qualify. Members in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont need 450 eligible hours. Eligible members are covered for up to three qualifying cases per year, and all services are completely confidential.
