Legal Aid of North Carolina

Legal Aid of North Carolina is a statewide, nonprofit law firm that provides free legal services in civil matters to low-income people in order to ensure equal access to justice and to remove legal barriers to economic opportunity.

We provide free legal assistance to low-income clients in the following areas: housing law (evictions, safe housing, housing discrimination, foreclosure), consumer law (contracts, debt collection, repossessions), public benefits (Medicare/Medicaid, food stamps, TANF/Work First, social security, unemployment benefits), and family law (victims of domestic violence). Legal Aid is also the leader of a statewide consortium to assist people with accessing and enrolling in high-quality, affordable health coverage through the Affordable Care Act.
