Since 1979, Legal Assistance to the Elderly has been providing free legal services to seniors and adults with disabilities. The bulk of the work centers around eviction – 60% of all the calls the organization gets are for threats to housing. The nonprofit also provides a multitude of other much-needed services such as foreclosure prevention, consumer debt mitigation, physical and financial elder abuse prevention, benefits advocacy, and end of life planning.

LAE was fantastic.... They don't like bullies, like the one I had to deal with. Now, I feel safer and secure.
