Definitions
Moderate Means
The name of the program is used to define members of the community who make a “moderate” monthly income.
“Moderate” mean you may make too much money to qualify for pro-bono legal services (free legal services), but not enough money to pay the high cost of hiring a lawyer to help with your family law or immigration matter.
