'''Philadelphia Legal Assistance (PLA)''' has provided free civil legal assistance to low-income individuals and families in Philadelphia for over 20 years.

About 30% of the people in Philadelphia live in families with incomes below the federal poverty level.  For those who are low-income, elderly, or disabled, our legal assistance is often crucial for them to protect their homes, their children, their safety, and their livelihood.  PLA is dedicated to helping those who cannot afford legal counsel navigate the legal system and understand and safeguard their rights.

On our web site you can learn about PLA, our advocates, our departments, the types of legal problems we handle, and how to get legal assistance.
