Qualified low-income people in Miami-Dade County may be eligible for legal assistance from referrals through the Something Back Pro Bono Project, which refers civil matters to a cadre of Dade Legal Aid staff attorneys and screen and Pro Bono attorneys and law firm volunteers.
To be eligible, a client must reside in Miami-Dade and their income cannot exceed 125-150% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines.
If an organization's purpose is to serve eligible clients, or consists primarily of eligible clients, then the organization is eligible for free services, provided the project can find a pro Bono attorney to advise the organization.
Many of their lawyers are fluent in multiple languages, so Spanish & Creole speakers are encouraged to apply for assistance.
In order to ensure the availability of Dade Legal Aid's legal services and/or support services, they offer appropriate assistance and support services at no cost to deaf or hard-of-hearing clients and accompanying persons.
