About
Atlanta Legal Aid has made a difference for over 100 years. Five counties. 75 lawyers. 700 volunteers. Nearly 21,000 cases. Every year.
Since 1924, Atlanta Legal Aid Society has offered free civil legal aid for low income people across metro Atlanta. With five neighborhood offices, three offices in Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta hospitals, a medical-legal partnership at Grady Hospital, courthouse partnerships in four counties, a variety of self-help clinics and countless community education programs, Legal Aid lawyers and volunteers reach tens of thousands of people annually. Our attorneys, staff and volunteers assist over 20,000 people each year with their legal issues.
Safe, decent and affordable housing is fundamental to building community. Legal Aid works across metro Atlanta and the state to help people to maintain the homes they have, to increase access to affordable housing and to improve conditions in which people live in order to help communities thrive.
Consumers often have difficulty navigating the complexity of laws and regulations established to protect them. Legal Aid lawyers fight predatory debt collectors, unfair and illegal collection practices, and other practices that threaten our clients’ economic stability.
