Need Help?

We provide free legal assistance for civil matters, including housing, family law, and disability benefits. We don’t charge for our services.

Generally, our services are available to individuals whose household income is at or below 125% of the federal poverty level. You can check the current guidelines here: 2025 Federal Poverty Guidelines

If your income is slightly higher than the guidelines, please don't hesitate to contact us. We may still be able to help you through special grants with higher income limits, especially if you can't afford a private attorney.
