How to Get Service
You may contact the FCC at any time at 608-262-2301. The FCC is closed in May and from early Dec. to mid Jan. of each year. Please leave your name, phone number, the legal issue you are facing and let the FCC know if it is safe for them to leave a message.
If you prefer that the FCC reach out to you instead, you may do so by filling out their Intake Request Form, which you can get to by pressing the "Apply Now" button below.
Other Eligibility
The FCC is available to low-income individuals who are not represented by an attorney. FCC students are only able to assist with cases that are filed in Wisconsin. Assistance can be provided to those who reside outside of Wisconsin if they are involved with a Wisconsin family court action.
