United Way Partner Agencies In Action: Legal Aid Services ⚖

While the criminal legal system provides an appointed attorney for criminal matters and police officers to enforce laws, there are no officers and no right to an attorney within the civil justice system.

Legal Aid Services exists to help low-income Oklahomans facing serious civil legal problems by serving as their civil attorney.

We are grateful for Legal Aid Services of Oklahoma, Inc. and their dedication to advocating for those facing civil legal problems.
