Welcome to the website of the Seminole County Bar Association Legal Aid Society, Inc.  Our program was commenced in 1975 with the mission of providing free quality legal advocacy to Seminole County`s economically disadvantaged persons to improve their quality of life and enhance their self-sufficiency.

Our program provides free legal services to eligible Seminole County residents with their civil legal problems in the following areas:

• Family Law: Representation in Divorce, custody, protection of families from domestic violence. Due to limited funding, we give priority to representation in Divorces where there exist minor children from the marriage.

• Housing: Preservation of housing by resolving legal problems related to housing issues involving private landlords. Due to limited funding, we are unable to provide assistance with housing issues involving subsidized housing or public housing.

• Guardianship: Representation in guardianships of minors, disabled adults or incapacitated elderly.

• Consumer Law: Representation for the poor and the elderly who are susceptible to exploitation.

• Educational Legal Seminars: Provide presentations to school children, elderly groups or civic organizations regarding legal issues.

• Adopt a Nonprofit organization: Representation of Nonprofit organizations with civil matters.

• Employment Law: Representation in employment law matters.
