Legal problems can be stressful and time consuming. Navigating these matters can also impact your ability to focus on your studies.
While the University of Wisconsin does not problem legal advice or support directly, we do collaborate with legal partners who do provide expert and confidential support. All current students at UW-Madison have access to a wide range of free legal support services for a variety of issues through these partners.
