LEGAL AID SERVICESLegal Aid Services are nonprofit corporations that provide free legal assistance to low income clients with non-criminal problems. The kinds of cases each legal aid office handles varies somewhat. Clients and Legal Aid staff in each community where there is a Legal Aid office have worked together to determine what would be the most important legal assistance for low-income people in their area. Legal Aid may provide representation in the following types of cases:

Housing Problems—This includes evictions, lockouts, confiscation of personal property, foreclosures, discrimination (racial and against families with children), disputes with landlords over repairs, rent, contracts, deposits or difficulties with public housing.

Consumer Cases—This includes debt problems, contracts, warranties, repossessions, wage garnishments, discrimination, and counseling on small claims court and bankruptcy procedures.
