Get Help
Legal Aid Society is here to help! We provide free legal help to individuals with low income in certain types of civil cases.
Do you need legal assistance but can't afford it?
Give us a call at 1-800-238-1443! Calling will assist us in evaluating your request for legal help. Please be as specific and detailed as possible. It is important that all questions be answered completely.
Note: We receive high volumes of calls everyday. If you are unable to reach a representative, please leave a voicemail. We will need 24-48 hours to respond to your request.
Important:
Calling us does not mean that we have accepted your case. Unfortunately, our resources are limited. We cannot help everyone who asks for our help. We are unable to take many cases, even those concerning real injustices. If your request is not accepted by our office, it does not mean it is without merit. You may wish to consult our Resources page for information on how to get other help.
If we need further information, we have your address and/or telephone number, and can request any documents necessary.
If you have a criminal case, you need to call the Public Defender’s office in the county where you are charged.
