Criminal
Criminal Cases*
A Fund lawyer will represent you in criminal matters involving violations, misdemeanors and/or felonies which carry a jail sentence and for which the maximum sentence is seven years or less in criminal court or federal court.
Who is eligible? Participant, spouse and dependent(s).
* Dependents are not eligible for Plan benefits when the situation involves a legal or adversarial dispute with the Member. For example, the Plan would not represent your spouse in your divorce or adversarial Family Court matters, such as support, custody, visitation or an order of protection. In any case involving a conflict of interest between you and your dependent, the Plan would provide legal services to you only.
If you are covered by the 32BJ North Legal Services Fund your benefits are different. Call Member Services at 800-551-3225 for more information.
