NEED LEGAL HELP?
Be a Champion of Justice!
Access to the justice system should be a reality for everyone - not just for those who can afford a lawyer. Legal Aid for Washington Fund’s (LAW Fund) Campaign for Equal Justice raises charitable support for more than 20 civil legal aid programs providing free legal assistance to those in need who are facing urgent civil (non-criminal) legal problems across Washington state.
In our communities, struggling families face an array of problems with devastating legal consequences. Legal aid can mean the difference between shelter and homelessness, food on the table and hunger, a steady job and unemployment.
Support for the Campaign for Equal Justice allows legal aid programs to increase their capacity to provide legal help to our state’s most vulnerable neighbors, leading to safer, healthier and more vibrant communities.
