Women and the Law: A Legal Rights Handbook

       
      The West Virginia Women’s Commission is partnering with the Women Lawyers Committee of the West Virginia State Bar and West Virginia Legal Aid Services to provide a third edition of this publication.

      Sections in this handbook will include information on understanding the court system, benefits and social welfare laws, criminal justice, education, employment law, family law, health care, gay and lesbian rights, money matters and property rights.

      There is also a resource guide provided at the end of the handbook with names and addresses of organizations that can assist women with many different issues.

      An online view of this handbook is now available through Legal Aid of West Virginia.
