Harvard Legal Aid Bureau

The Harvard Legal Aid Bureau is a student-run organization at Harvard Law School that provides free legal services to individuals who cannot afford to hire a lawyer. Founded in 1911, it focuses on assisting low-income clients with civil matters such as housing, public benefits, and family law. The bureau offers law students practical experience while addressing access-to-justice issues in the community. It operates under the supervision of experienced faculty and aims to ensure legal representation for underserved populations, promoting fairness and equality within the legal system.
