About the Tax Clinic
The Tax Clinic is a pro bono (free) legal clinic that gives free legal help to low income taxpayers with tax problems--either with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or the Connecticut Department of Revenue Services (DRS). Diana Leyden, the Director and an Associate Clinical Professor, and law students will work on your case. The Tax Clinic also works with attorneys in Connecticut who volunteer to help low income taxpayers pro bono.
The Tax Clinic is independent and separate from the IRS and DRS. All telephone conversations and in person meetings are confidential.
The Tax Clinic can help clients for whom English is a Second Language by arranging an interpreter or translator. Languages that the Tax Clinic generally supports are Spanish, French and Polish.

The Tax Clinic is located at the University of Connecticut Law School, 65 Elizabeth Street, Hartford, CT, on the third floor of the Hosmer Building. The phone number is (860) 570-5165. You can reach the Tax Clinic offices by bus (Connecticut Transit Route A; nearest stops are Asylum and Woodland or Asylum and Fern), or by car.
Generally, the Tax Clinic offices are open Monday through Friday from 8:00am-4:30pm. It is best if you make an appointment rather than walk in. We will try to help you set up a meeting at a time that fits your schedule you if you cannot come in during our office hours.
