FLC is a social collaboration platform that enables a life-coaching team approach to address a client's problem in a holistic manner.
- At FreeLegalClinics.com ("FLC"), we believe that just like fever and cough are symptoms of underlying diseases, legal problems are often just symptoms of a person's life situation.
- There is a wealth of agencies and groups attempting to address the symptoms, but not enough collaboration across the board to address a client's need in a holistic manner.
- FLC aims to be a social collaboration platform where a person facing a legal issue may enlist a team of advisers to coach him/her not only with the immediate legal problem, but also to exam his/her current life situation and plot a better trajectory towards a more trouble-free and fulling life.
- For example, an immigrant seeking legal aid for immigration issue often requires a lot more help than just dealing with the immigration agencies. She may need job training, affordable housing, healthcare assistance, and childcare assistance. An immigration clinic may only be equipped to help with her immigration problem, but solving her immigration problem without addressing her other needs won't really help her to achieve her full potential and is likely to set her on a path where she will need more other assistance down the road.
- With FLC's platform, the same person may receive the attention of other advisers at the same time. Quarterbacked by the legal adviser, a life-coaching team may be assembled online to help the person plot a better course in life.
