Legal service organizations
Legal Service Organizations (LSOs) are nonprofit entities that provide legal assistance and representation to individuals or groups who cannot afford private lawyers. They help ensure access to justice by offering services such as legal advice, representation in court, and assistance with matters like housing, family issues, or public benefits. LSOs often serve vulnerable populations, including low-income families, seniors, or marginalized communities, working to promote fairness and uphold legal rights for those in need. Their goal is to make legal support more accessible and equitable for all members of society.
