Community Legal Services (CLS) provides free legal advice and representation to low income residents of Philadelphia. To qualify for help, your income cannot be more than 125% of the federal poverty line (in rare cases we may be able to help people with slightly higher incomes).

Please select your problem to find out how to get help. If you need help applying for public benefits, click here.

You may also be able to get help from Philadelphia 211 by visiting http://211sepa.org/ or calling 211 on your phone.

CLS can only help current residents of Philadelphia. If you lived in Philadelphia when your legal problem occurred you may still be eligible.

CLS handles only civil cases. We do not handle criminal cases.

When you visit CLS, please bring all materials relating to your case, including letters and any recent bills you may have.

CLS is accepting new clients by phone only. Call 215-981-3700 to get legal help.
