Arizona Pro Bono & Community Legal Resources

Arizona is a unique state in that a large percentage of its land area is covered by Native American reservations. One of the unfortunate aspects of life for many Native Americans is poverty. As a result, approximately 13.9% of Arizona's 6.6 million people live below the federal poverty level. Those people are at risk in a number of ways, especially when it comes to the law.

If you run into trouble with the law in Arizona and have to go to court, finding adequate representation - without having a money - can be problematic. Fortunately, there are many pro bono and community legal resources available in the Grand Canyon State.

Pro Bono Resources in Arizona

There are two organizations, both associated with the Arizona State Bar, that offer pro bono legal services: Will's for Heroes and Lawyers on Call. With Lawyers on Call, lawyers volunteer their time at a phone bank, where they answer questions by Arizona citizens; topics vary by month. With Wills for Heroes, first responders receive free estate planning legal services.
