共同努力实现正义

“我记得小时候，我妈妈曾得到你们公司的帮助。由于你们的帮助，我们后来在家里住了几个月。我对你们的感谢之情无以言表！”

"I've owed too many late fees and interest. [But now] I feel like I'm floating and not drowning."

“我的 BayLegal 律师非常友善和乐于助人。他们把我的案子当成自己的案子，并且非常认真地进行后续工作。我将永远感激他们的帮助。”

"Being homeless was overwhelming—I had no place to stay, no food to eat, and not even shoes on my feet. Bay Area Legal Aid changed my life.... When I was awarded disability benefits, it felt like the light at the end of a very long and dark tunnel.”

As a single mother and survivor of domestic violence, I needed guidance to start over, including help with dissolving my domestic partnership and navigating child custody matters. 

Bay Area Legal Aid supported me through one of the most difficult times in my life, and I am deeply grateful for the compassionate, high quality legal assistance I received — all at no cost.

"When we were faced with the overwhelming challenge of navigating the complexities of the SSI system …. your organization stepped in with expertise, compassion and determination.... This resolution has lifted a significant burden from our shoulders and greatly improved [my son’s] quality of life."

“我从来没有遇到过像我的 BayLegal 律师那样努力为我辩护的人。”

"Our BayLegal attorney fought for outcomes I hadn't even known to ask for."

“他们教会了我很多东西——不仅仅是关于……SSI 和住房，还有其他事情。如何自己寻找资源并变得更坚强。我的意思是，他们让我变得坚强，所以现在我可以自己做大部分事情，因为他们一路上给予我的帮助和工具以及技巧。”

“I was in such numbness. [My former partner's abuse] affected me, in addition to affecting my children. They didn’t know what was going on… but now, my focus is on me and my children. They’re happy and I had the strength to move forward with my life.”
