How We Help
Legal Aid of Nebraska provides both electronic tools as well as in-person clinics for certain types of legal issues where Nebraskans may be empowered to help themselves solve their own legal issues with limited assistance or no assistance from our attorneys.
A2J Walk-In Centers
Omaha, Lincoln, Grand Island, and Scottsbluff offices of Legal Aid operate Access to Justice (A2J) Self-Help Walk-In Centers several days a week. Through the A2J Self-Help Centers, Legal Aid helps low-income Nebraskans help themselves to gain justice.
Legal Aid seeks to empower individuals to take action on their own behalf and increase the likelihood of achieving a positive legal outcome by providing the knowledge and resources to help people understand and navigate the civil legal system.
Pre-registration is not required, but a brief application form will need to be filled out when you arrive. All of our self-help centers are first-come, first-serve.
