Description

Since 1951, Eastern Michigan Legal Services (LSEM) has provided free civil legal assistance to people living in poverty.

Its mission is to use legal skills to address the causes and effects of poverty.

Particular emphasis is placed on those issues that affect the survival needs of people on low incomes.

This work is done both reactively, by responding to individual legal needs, and proactively, by engaging in impact work that brings about systemic change affecting the community of the poor as a whole.

The majority of clients served live at 125% or below the poverty level.

This financial eligibility threshold is higher depending on certain funding criteria for specific services.
