Ozarks Access Point

Holistic advocacy includes an assessment of the applicant’s current life circumstances along with their legal issue(s). Ozarks Access Point (OAP) will help approved clients overcome personal and familial barriers to thriving, such as food, housing, or transportation insecurities or issues accessing public benefits. 

OAP will provide holistic, sliding-scale legal representation for people with incomes at or below 300% of the current Federal Poverty Level guidelines. Please see the services and sliding scale costs document for more information. We serve rural Arkansans first.

OAP currently focuses on family law. We offer comprehensive family law services as well as assistance addressing the non legal issue(s) that lead to legal problems in the first place.

OAP offers the following services as well as family law practice:

• OAP Unbundled Services: providing low-cost, sliding scale limited representation tailored to the holistic needs of clients. Unbundled services includes document review, notary, drafting, consultation, and other finite legal tasks. Contact us to see if we can assist with you with your specific need.
• OAP Collaborative Legal Integrations: providing collaborative, non-adversarial, sliding scale legal services in cases that are traditionally adversarial. Representation is limited to achieving an agreed outcome between parties to a legal dispute. Primarily focusing on lower-income persons who have family or juvenile legal issues as well as other areas of law, selectively. Call us to see if your legal matter can be solved collaboratively.
• OAP Maltreatment Registry Navigation: providing holistic sliding scale limited or full representation legal services to lower-income people most negatively affected by maltreatment investigations or findings. Being on the maltreatment registry will limit your job opportunities. Request a consultation if you need help dealing with an ongoing investigation or finding.
