PROVIDING FREE LEGAL SERVICES
IN METROPOLITAN DETROIT

 

We’re the Legal Aid and Defender Association, Inc. We’re the largest provider of free legal services to the indigent in Michigan and one of the largest in the United States. We’re a nonprofit, charitable organization, but if we were a private law firm, we’d be the fourth largest in the state. And we have the legal talent and technology to compete with the best private firms.

Our mission is to provide comprehensive, aggressive legal advocacy and representation for residents of metropolitan Detroit. If you have a legal problem and:

  • Live in Macomb, Oakland or Wayne County, Michigan, including the City of Detroit, and
  • Have low to moderate income or are a senior, then
  • Call us toll-free at 877.964.4700.

We’re committed to serving our clients in such a thorough and personal manner that they will be satisfied with our performance regardless of the outcomes of particular cases.


 

“We work with clients in a comprehensive manner, so that as we solve their legal problems, we help solve other problems as well. We help people rebuild their lives and families stay together."

Deierdre L. Weir
Executive Director

“It is absolutely essential that everyone in our society has access to our justice system, and that's our job."

Arthur Dudley
President
Board of Directors
