  I don't even want to rate them a one star. As soon as I walked in the door the environment is extremely unfriendly. All the doors were open while attorneys sat and gossiped about other people's cases. I heard them do nothing but bash their clients for their charges. Laughed about the help they were asking for. I finally get help and Leah ceranski clearly knows nothing about her job description. First question that was asked she had to leave the room to ask how to answer it. She would rather eat than help people. This place is a joke. The receptionist is also very unpleasant to talk to. I wouldn't recommend going here for any legal help. They're hired to HELP people!! If you don't have compassion for what you do. Get a different job!!! Easy as that

  They handled my divorce from an abusive ex-wife. It was free because I qualified for it as legal aide. Worked out great because I'm disabled. You kind of get what you pay for though in that regard. They weren't willing to help me pursue a restraining order or getting back property. It was just for filing the divorce paperwork and getting it done. It took them 6 months to do it, mainly because I think they forgot about me. I wrote emails to the one they provided and never got a response so finally I called, the first thing they said was "Oh we didn't forget about you!" If you have to say that unprompted, it looks like that's what happened. Either way, it was cheaper than a regular lawyer. If you have no other options they're pretty reasonable.

  Will not recommend for custody cases when I had an appointment for the first meeting with them for custody of my kids and the lady told me she would only fight for 50/50 custody even with a past protection order and pictures of bruises from the abuse towards me in the place my kids were even if he wanted to give me full custody she would have only offered 50/50 custody and I didn't choose to go with them and fought for full custody on my own with no lawyer and not much information about the topic but I still won full custody of both my children so they are no use worst ever, even a regular person with little knowledge about the process can do better than them

  You are better of doing your own research and looking through south dakota law then going here. They may be sympathetic but more or less want you out so they can check you off their list. I had hopes they would be of some help but was disappointed. Thank you legal aid for reminding me why south dakota rapid city sucks and doesn't care for their people

  Tried to get help with an eviction process that was being done wrongfully to me. They said they couldn't help even though laws were being broken on behalf of the ex and landlord. And they said they still couldn't help me. They were rude. They definitely pick and choose cases they feel like doing.
