The mission of LIFT Dane is to provide efficient, technology driven legal assistance to clear civil legal barriers to economic prosperity for Dane County families, to transform legal and court systems to prevent economic drags, and to contribute to national reform movements to improve access to civil legal justice.
We are making it easy to address legal issues! That’s right, an online-based Legal Tune Up. This innovative tool helps people conveniently check on their civil legal problems right from a browser on their smartphone or computer.
The first features of the Legal Tune Up identify and remove old eviction records and eligible criminal records from Wisconsin’s online public records database known as Consolidated Court Automation Programs (CCAP).
Need to find a new job? The tool can also help connect you with professional employment and job training assistance.
To help resolve civil legal driver’s license problems, LIFT Dane conducts regularly scheduled video or phone conferences to safely connect you with an attorney. With a private LIFT Dane phone or video conference, you can get free legal advice and an understanding of the steps it might take to reinstate a license or to resolve other suspension issues.
Schedule an appointment soon to speak with a free attorney to review your driver’s license record. Please contact: Fred Lauing at 1.608.333.5104 or by email at flauing@liftdane.org
Capitalizing on over 100 years of combined experience of our partner organizations, LIFT Dane is a collaboration between the Economic Justice Institute, Inc., Legal Action of Wisconsin, the UW Law School’s civil legal clinics, the Center for Patient Partnerships, and the Employment And Training Association (EATA) of Dane County.
Every time a suspended license is reinstated, the license holder must pay a $60.00 reinstatement fee. This can be a barrier to many who otherwise have the ability to drive again. To help people recover their driver's licenses and to get back on the road, please donate to our fund for paying Driver's License Reinstatement Fees.
We are so grateful for the continuing support from our community and partners like Schmidt Futures. Every donation brings us closer to achieving our goals for civil legal justice. If you'd like to join our growing list of supporters, please donate today or get involved.
