IMPORTANT UPDATE
Family income thresholds used to determine the availability of no cost or low cost legal services have been updated as of April, 2020. The limits have increased and are adjusted for family size.
A summary of the thresholds based upon gross family income and family size are available on the Apply For Services page. Incomes at or below those levels may be eligible for no cost services. Income is only one factor and the availability of assets will also be considered. If income and other factors are such that a family does not qualify for free services, the Foundation does have a contributory program that may be available at low cost.
