Housing law: Fighting evictions, helping prevent homelessness, and advocating for those facing foreclosure. Disability advocacy: Assisting clients with disability rights claims, ensuring they receive the services and benefits they are entitled to. Family law: Supporting families in crises with legal issues including custody, child support, and orders of protection. Public benefits: Helping eligible individuals access crucial benefits like Medicaid, Social Security, and SNAP.
