Who We Are

The Claimant Advocacy Program (CAP) is a free legal counseling service available to individuals who file unemployment compensation appeals in the District of Columbia. CAP attorneys meet with workers denied unemployment compensation in D.C. or whose benefit awards have been appealed by the employer. If the case is accepted, the CAP attorney appears at the hearing as the worker's legal representative.  Representation is made on a case-by-case basis based on the facts of each appeals claim. However, all claimants can receive free legal counseling.  Click here for more details.

El programa de asesoramiento y abogacía por los derechos del trabajador? Claimant Advocacy Program (CAP) proporciona servicios legales gratuitos a quien ha recibido notificación de una audiencia de apelación en un caso de indemnización por desempleo-unemployment compensation- en el Distrito de Columbia. Los abogados de CAP no garantizan representación legal en su audiencia de apelación. Solo después de estudiar los detalles particulares del caso se toma decisión acerca de la representación legal. En todos los casos, los servicios de asesoramiento y abogacía del CAP son completamente gratuitos.  Haga clíc aqui para detalles.
