Lethbridge Legal Guidance Society – Lethbridge, AB

Access to Justice for Everyone

The Lethbridge Legal Guidance Society is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing legal assistance and information to low-income individuals in Lethbridge and the surrounding area. We believe that financial barriers should not prevent anyone from understanding their legal rights or accessing the justice system. Through the support of volunteer lawyers and community partners, we offer free legal clinics and educational resources to those who do not qualify for Legal Aid but cannot afford private counsel. Our mission is to bridge the gap in legal services and empower members of our community to resolve their legal issues.

Our Services

We provide a range of services designed to help those in need navigate the legal landscape.

• Free Legal Clinics: We operate evening clinics where volunteer lawyers provide summary legal advice on various matters, including family law, civil disputes, employment issues, and criminal law.
• Legal Information: Our staff helps individuals understand court procedures, fill out forms, and access relevant legal information.
• Referrals: We connect clients with other social agencies and legal resources when their needs fall outside our scope.
• Public Legal Education: We conduct workshops and presentations to educate the public about their rights and responsibilities under the law.

Supporting the Community

Lethbridge Legal Guidance is a vital resource for the community. We are not a traditional law firm, but a helping hand for those who have nowhere else to turn. If you are facing a legal problem and are concerned about the cost of a lawyer, we encourage you to contact us to see if you qualify for our services. We treat every client with dignity, respect, and confidentiality.

Downtown Location

Our office is located on 5th Street South in downtown Lethbridge, making it easily accessible for all residents. We are here to help you find your way through the legal system.
