Legal Aid of Nebraska makes equal justice happen for low-income Nebraskans. As the only statewide civil legal aid provider offering free services, almost 300,000 Nebraskans are eligible for assistance - we receive around 1,400+ calls a month from people requesting assistance.
Legal Aid works to provide vulnerable individuals with quality legal advice and representation in Grand Island and the surrounding area. We tackle inequality and increase opportunity for low-income Nebraskans by helping clients navigate their way through a complex and often intimidating legal system.
Without Legal Aid, justice would be denied to those who need it most. To help accomplish this, Legal Aid provides a full range of civil legal services, from brief advice and counsel to assistance with self-representation, to direct representation in court. We represent low-income clients with some of life's toughest legal challenges. Families fighting wrongful evictions, women trapped in abusive relationships, children needing a stable home, wage earners losing what little they have to abusive debt collectors, veterans denied rightfully earned benefits - they all need legal help to solve.
"Legal Aid of Nebraska saved my family from being homeless, and it gave me that extra time that I needed to be able to get back on my feet and get a few things situated," Audreana T.
"I tell everyone that I encounter, I owe Legal Aid my life because without them I would not have gotten my kids, and I would not have had that confidence to stand up to the people who were abusing me." Leah B.
