Legal Services Alabama (LSA) has seven offices and a centralized intake call center working together to fulfill its mission statement: To serve low-income people by providing civil legal aid and by promoting collaboration to find solutions to problems of poverty. These offices are located in Birmingham, Dothan, Huntsville, Mobile, Montgomery, Selma and Tuscaloosa.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services establishes the income amounts used to determine eligibility. They usually change early each year. Check the current poverty levels. The LSA eligibility level is 125% of the poverty level.

LSA recognizes that each client's situation and legal issue is different. If your households income is more than 125% of the federal poverty level, you may still qualify for our services. LSA also has special grants to assist vulnerable populations that are not income based such as our elder grants to assist clients 60 and over.

LSA offices handle civil cases only. Each office has lawyers licensed to practice in Alabama and other staff who know how to help low-income people resolve their legal problems.

For tax issues and more, LSA's Low Income Taxpayer Clinic may be able to help you

Mission Statement: Legal Services Alabama (LSA) serves low-income people by providing free civil legal aid and assistance and by promoting collaboration to find solutions to problems of poverty.
