About Lone Star Legal Aid

Lone Star Legal Aid is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit law firm focused on advocacy for low-income and underserved populations. We protect and advance the civil legal rights of the millions of Texans living in poverty.

We focus our resources on:
Maintaining, enhancing, and protecting income and economic stability;
Preserving housing;
Improving outcomes for children;
Establishing and sustaining family safety, stability, health, and wellbeing; and
Assisting populations with special vulnerabilities, like those with disabilities, the aging, survivors of crime and disasters, the unemployed and underemployed, the unhoused, those with limited English language skills, and the LGBTQIA+ community

We serve 72 counties in Texas and 4 in Arkansas, an area that covers one-third of the state, including almost 60,000 square miles from Texarkana, down the Louisiana-Texas Gulf Coast state-line, to Matagorda Bay, and into Central Texas, an area with over 2 million Texans eligible for free legal services.

We have 14 offices, and cover many practice areas, including consumer, landlord tenant, foreclosure, public benefits, environmental justice, disaster recovery, tax relief, fair housing, family law, domestic violence, sexual assault, crime victim rights, veterans benefits, and more.
