HIV Law Project was the first and, today, remains the only legal agency providing comprehensive services exclusively to low income people living with HIV/AIDS in New York City. We recognize people living with HIV/AIDS deserve to live with dignity and respect as valued members of our society but are stigmatized and face discrimination because of their illness. We further recognize that homophobia, racism and sexism in our society has played a fundamental role in the response to and spread of the epidemic. We are committed to providing all our clients with high quality legal and advocacy services without judgment. Our areas of practice include: housing and eviction prevention; immigration law; public and private benefit and health insurance issues; discrimination and HIV-related confidentiality issues; last wills and testaments and advanced planning; debtor/creditor law.

Important Information

Legal Aid Funding
Legal aid professionals and organizations oftentimes receive government funding for taking on cases with those who cannot afford attorneys. For the most part, funding is limited so legal aid entities can only take on a limited amount of cases. Qualifications are often rigid.
