Our Mission

We protect and advance the civil legal rights of low-income Texans by providing advocacy, legal representation, and community education that ensures equal access to justice.

In 2024, LSLA handled over 25,111 cases, benefitting 61,289 individuals. Among them, 32% were domestic violence survivors, 18.5% were senior (60+), and 7% were Veterans.

Our priorities include:

  • Improving the delivery of legal services;
  • Providing advice, brief services, and referrals;
  • Maintaining, enhancing and protecting income and economic stability;
  • Seeking or maintaining safety, stability, and health or well-being;
  • Preserving housing and relating housing needs;
  • Improving outcomes for children; and
  • Assisting populations with special vulnerabilities.

The client did not have the financial resources to hire a private attorney. The lack of financial resources should not be a barrier to accessing safety-related orders from the civil legal justice system.
