About LawNY

LawNY is a non-profit law firm that provides free legal aid to people who live in 14 counties in western New York.

LawNY offices may be able to help you with problems such as welfare terminations, divorces, evictions, SSI denials, or other problems if you live in one of these counties we cover.

Because our funding is limited, we can't help everyone who wants a lawyer. For more information, click here.
