HOME Line offers free legal advice to Minnesota tenants on our hotline service. We have found that many renters like to communicate directly with our experienced housing attorneys via email. You can do this yourself by filling out the below form in as much detail as possible. Over 50,000 renters have taken advantage of this service.
If you are emailing on behalf of someone else (a friend, family member or client), because of attorney/client confidentiality, we need permission from the tenant in order to answer any questions, including general questions. Ideally, you could help the tenant complete the below form with their own information (their name, phone/email, address of rental unit, demographics, question, etc.), and have them submit the form themselves. Then, if they wish to share the results of our email reply with you, they can. After we respond to the initial message, if more information and/or discussion is needed, you may have to provide a release from the tenant or have them contact us directly.
If you are emailing about an issue where there is a possible conflict of interest, we may need more information. For instance, if you are emailing about a problem with a roommate, we will need to know the roommates name and address of the property in dispute (lawyers can only advise one side of a conflict). If you are emailing about a problem with a neighbor, we will need your address and your neighbor’s address. We check these names and addresses in our database to make sure we haven’t previously advised the other side.
Please fill in as much as you can. All of the fields below are required to be completed for the form to be submitted, and they help us to provide the best legal advice to you. All information submitted remains confidential. Demographic information helps HOME Line demonstrate to funders how our services benefit Minnesota renters.

Once you submit this form, we will respond to your question in the order it was received, which is usually within 1-2 business days (however it may be longer when we are experiencing a high volume of emails/calls).
