Legal Assistance Corporation

A Legal Assistance Corporation is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing free or low-cost legal services to individuals who cannot afford private attorneys. These organizations aim to ensure access to justice for underserved populations, such as low-income individuals, seniors, or people with disabilities. They often handle cases involving housing, domestic violence, public benefits, or consumer rights. Funded through government grants, donations, and legal fees, they work to promote fairness and protect rights within the legal system, ensuring that financial barriers do not prevent people from obtaining necessary legal support.
