Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada is a non-profit organization established in 1958.  We provide free legal services to immigrant victims of domestic violence, trafficking, and other crimes. We assist children seeking relief under Special Immigrant Juvenile Visas, asylum and withholding of removal status. We also assist clients with adjustment of status and other immigration matters. We offer free weekly classes in partnership with the William S. Boyd School of Law entitled "Do I have a Path to Legal Status?"  Attendees may also sign up for free  consultations with an attorney to evaluate their case.  We are also working with community partners to provide legal assistance to Afghan evacuees in Southern Nevada.

Counties served: Clark, Nye
