Due to limited resources, Legal Aid of Arkansas must sometimes make hard decisions about which cases to accept. Legal Aid’s priorities consist of four core areas: Access to Safe and Affordable Housing; Protection from Domestic Violence; Economic Justice; and Consumer Rights. Legal Aid does not have the resources to provide extended representation for every eligible case. Our staff may offer advice, brief services, and referrals to any eligible applicant – including case types not considered for extended representation. The maximum income level is 125% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines. Call our helpline or apply online to see if you qualify for free legal help.
Legal Assistance
Included in this list are organizations that provide free or low-cost legal services to victims of abuse and others who qualify. Even if the organization does not have a lawyer available to represent you in court, you may want to ask if there is a lawyer who you can consult with to get advice. Please note that we list the organizations by the town/city or county where the office is located – however, many offices may likely serve multiple counties. We indicate the “counties served” whenever possible. You can click “View All” to look through the complete list of organizations.
