About Legal Services Alabama

Legal Services Alabama (LSA) is a non-profit law firm dedicated to providing free, client-centered civil legal advocacy to low-income Alabamians. The firm collaborates with other entities across the state and nation to address systemic issues rooted in poverty. LSA operates eight offices located in Anniston/Gadsden, Birmingham, Dothan, Huntsville, Mobile, Montgomery, Selma, and Tuscaloosa, serving all 67 counties of the state.

Established on February 1, 2004, LSA was formed through the merger of three existing legal services programs in Alabama, a consolidation initiated by the Legal Services Corporation to enhance resource availability and improve access to justice. As the only LSC-funded program and non-profit law firm offering free civil legal assistance statewide, LSA focuses exclusively on civil cases.

The firm's core services encompass domestic violence support, public benefits assistance (including Social Security and Food Stamps), housing issues such as eviction and foreclosures, and consumer protection against issues like payday lending abuse and wage garnishment. LSA also provides legal help with heirs property & estate planning, education access, community re-entry, low income taxpayer clinic matters, and disaster relief. Services are extended to specific populations, including veterans and the elderly. LSA aims to resolve most cases outside of court, reducing the number of self-represented litigants and promoting court efficiency.

This is by far my favorite dominos. Ordered a large New York style with extra robust sauce with spinach topping. Sooo good! Kudos to the staff who helped make my late dinner awesome!

Well they seemed to want to help us , but in the end they gave up, so now me and fiancee are about to be on the streets, no fault of our own, but land lord kicked us both out, he told me last Friday I had to have 250.00 by Monday or i had 2 get out , because i didn't pay rent this month because i havent had my own power since id been here, i moved here first of November and January I paid rent and the others with no power didn't, well a neighbor got us some free power we have to share, 1 camper supplies power to 3 and so on. So we can't do too much or we'll flip breakers and such, and Chad Hansen landlord at McCoy rv Park also said the church didn't pay my rent for month before , which was a lie they sent us a screenshot of check where he deposited check and cashed it and he did the same to our neighbor , but anyways we was supposed to have been out Friday morning at 9 but my girl got us until 29th to move 2 campers , my girl is bad health wise, no money, she got camper after her stepdad died last Sunday he left everything to her, she lives with me but my trailer is terrible, falling apart so were moving in hers but we have no money, no vehicle and hed threatening to tow our stuff, we don't have anywhere to go, anything to do it with, were both scared to death, he steals from churches, he's a crooked sorry man , everyone

They aren't actually legal services. They aren't allowed to help you and will refer you to someone else. That someone else will either not pick up or they will refer you back to this number. They just give each other referrals all day and won't actually help anyone

I'm so grateful for their help in giving me a fresh start. The process did take some time, but that's pretty normal when it comes to legal matters. In the end, it was absolutely worth it!
