With a goal of helping people handle many of their own common legal matters -- or helping them work with lawyers more effectively -- Nolo has been providing detailed, reliable do-it-yourself legal information since 1971.
On the Nolo Web site, you will find legal information on many topics that are important to older adults and their caregivers, including:
- Estate planning
- Wills and powers of attorney
- Personal finance
- Elder care
- Taxes
- Housing & real estate
- Starting a small business
In addition, Nolo offers free e-mail newsletters providing legal information.
Here's a message from Nolo's staff:
"If we ran the American legal system, we'd make it simpler, fairer, and more accessible to ordinary individuals and businesses. Our way of working for change is to publish top-notch materials people can use themselves. Americans who are armed with solid legal knowledge are confident, active participants in their legal system -- and slowly but inevitably, their participation makes that system more open and democratic."
