    Created in 2025, this new office connects New Yorkers with free legal services.

Connecting Low-Income New Yorkers with Free Legal Help

New York City is home to many legal service organizations, law schools, law firms, and individual lawyers, many of which offer pro bono services, and it is a significant priority of the City to ensure that New Yorkers are able to identify and access such available pro bono services and other support services. 

The Mayor's Office to Facilitate Pro Bono Legal Assistance is a city supported initiative that partners with city agencies, law firms, law schools, and community organizations to make legal services accessible to low-income New Yorkers - when and where they're needed most.
