At Land of Lincoln Legal Aid, we believe everyone deserves access to justice—regardless of income.

We provide free civil legal services to individuals and families across the Metro East, helping our neighbors resolve legal issues that impact their safety, housing, and financial stability.

⚖️ What We Do
We help people:

  • Stay in their homes when facing eviction
  • Find safety from domestic violence
  • Access healthcare and public benefits
  • Clear records to secure jobs and move forward

These aren’t just legal issues—they are life-changing moments.

💙 More Than Legal Help
Our Client Support Services (CSS) team works alongside attorneys to provide holistic support—helping clients access resources like rental assistance and removing barriers to long-term stability.

🚐 Meeting People Where They Are
Through our Mobile Justice program, we bring legal services directly into Metro East communities—making it easier for people to get help when they need it most.

Why Give STL Day matters
Your support helps more individuals and families get the legal help they need to stay safe, housed, and stable.
