How It Works
If you face a serious or urgent problem (such as landlord threats, or fraud, illigitimate expulsion, other form of crime), contact us immediately via WhatsApp +371 28635050 — our team will respond as fast as possible.
For non-urgent issues, please fill in the contact form below and describe your situation in detail.
All cases are received and reviewed by OISW. Once accepted, we assign each student to one of our partner lawyers or volunteer advocates, who specialize in housing and student-related matters.
Please do not contact lawyers directly — all communication goes through OISW so we can prepare your file, ensure fairness, and keep the process free of charge.
Our Guarantee
✔ Legal help is completely free for students when coordinated through OISW.
✔ We handle case selection, document preparation, and lawyer assignment to make sure your situation is managed professionally.
✔ Our lawyers include certified Latvian advocates with years of experience in rental and civil law.
To make justice accessible to every student — through real, immediate, and ethical legal support powered by a community that cares.
