Legal matters are vitally important to neighborhood-serving organizations, but the cost of a legal consultation can be daunting. We partner with the Lawyers Alliance for New York to provide legal, compliance, and governance support to community-based organizations — for free.
Whether you have questions about how to incorporate your organization, your lease or some other type of contract, or the roles and responsibilities of your organization’s leadership, we will put you in touch with an attorney who can offer pro-bono services.
Please email neighborhoods@sbs.nyc.gov to request an application form. Applications will be accepted and reviewed on a first-come, first-served basis through May 1, 2020.
