Mission

NLS strives to meet the civil legal needs of the poor and vulnerable through effective legal representation and education. Our support takes many forms. We educate, we give advice, and we provide representation in court. Our clients all experience a legal in crisis, with their basic needs for safety and security being threatened by domestic violence, eviction and/or unscrupulous creditors. In every case, legal aid advocates quickly address the client's issues and provide compassionate effective intervention. Civil legal aid provided by NLS helps ensure fairness for all in the justice system, regardless of how much money you have.
