Self-Help: Ejectment in Philadelphia

How We Can Help

Members of the public are welcome to visit the library for $5 a day (Mon. - Fri., 9am - 5pm) to do their own research. 

Jenkins librarians can help you find and use books and legal databases on our computers. Jenkins staff are not attorneys, so we cannot give you answers to your legal questions or give you legal advice. We cannot select or fill out forms, write briefs or memorandum, or conduct any research for you.

The links in this guide will direct you to resources that you can use to find information at the library. The guide is a starting place, but there might be more laws or materials that are relevant to your issue than what's listed here. 

This guide is meant to give you information and is not legal advice. If you have a legal problem, we suggest you talk to an attorney. Please see our Self-Help: Free Legal Aid or Self-Help: Find a Lawyer guides.
