Warning: Don't be a Victim of Legal Aid Scams
  WARNING: Some organizations are using the name Legal Aid to sell do-it-yourself legal kits for a profit, usually between $175 to $300 or more. The kit usually does not meet the requirements of the Kansas courts and is useless. Other organizations are promising to move you up on the Legal Aid waiting list for a fee. Please be aware that Kansas Legal Services will never ask you for payment for do-it-yourself legal kits, to move your place in line, to speed up your case, for legal fees or other expenses.
