Legal Aid Society is Tennessee’s largest non-profit law firm. 32 attorneys provide legal assistance in 48 counties. Hundreds of private attorneys provide pro bono services through our Volunteer Lawyers Program. Thousands of people read our booklets and get information about a legal problem or self help.

Our work is organized through five Practice Groups focusing on specific needs within our community:

Consumer
Employment
Family and Domestic Violence
Health, Income and Education
Housing

We handle a broad range of cases to protect livelihood, health and safety of low income families. Learn more about what we do by reading descriptions of the Kinds of Cases We Take.
