For those unable to afford an attorney, civil legal aid plays a key role in ensuring justice for all and helps individuals and families combat legal crises such as homelessness and domestic violence, preventing further instability in their lives. Civil legal aid also helps Massachusetts residents protect the welfare of children, gain access to veterans’ benefits and health care, and resolve unemployment appeals and wage and hour disputes.
