Access Justice Brooklyn

Access Justice Brooklyn partners with compassionate pro bono attorneys to provide high-quality, civil legal services that help ensure equal access to the legal system. Founded in 1990 as the Brooklyn Bar Association Volunteer Lawyers Project, Access Justice Brooklyn is an independent 501(c)(3) organization that continues offering free legal advice and representation to people who cannot afford it. Our dedicated staff and volunteer legal professionals provide direct civil legal services and assistance to Brooklyn residents living at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines. Our primary referral areas prioritize essential aspects of life, with a focus toward family stability, aging safely and comfortably, personal finances, housing, and freedom of movement. Staff also participate in and facilitate clinics, hotlines, and other types of legal education. Learn more about Access Justice Brooklyn by visiting www.accessjusticebrooklyn.org.
