A Trafficking Survivor’s Guide to Legal Representation
This guide from the Human Trafficking Legal Center is written for survivors of human trafficking who need legal assistance but are unsure of where to begin. It covers the types of lawyers who may be able to help you—including those in family law, civil litigation, immigration, criminal defense, tax, and housing law—and explains your right to representation. It also offers practical guidance on how to find and verify a lawyer’s qualifications and license, what to expect from your attorney, your attorney’s responsibilities, and the essential terms of any agreement you sign with them. Finally, it addresses how to recognize and address unethical or predatory behavior, seek a second opinion, change lawyers, or take action if your lawyer failed to represent you properly.

Under a new law, the Trafficking Survivors Relief Act, human trafficking survivors can seek criminal record relief for federal arrests and convictions that were a direct result of their trafficking experience. This resource is intended for survivors who think they may qualify for record relief under this law. Since this is a first-of-its-kind federal record relief option, much is still unknown about how it will be implemented. The FAQ reflects common questions from survivors and advocates about the law. The questions and answers will be updated as more information becomes available.
