EQUAL.
For more than 35 years, we have been the source of free, civil legal aid in Louisiana.
Our goal is to ensure that all Louisianans – regardless of their zip code, background or income level – have access to the civil legal services they need.
Whether you are an attorney, a judge, a citizen in need, or a philanthropist – welcome – we are here to co-create a more inclusive and equitable society with you.
