Indianapolis Legal Aid Society, Inc. is a nonprofit legal services organization based in Indianapolis, Indiana, serving central Indiana for more than seven decades. Its primary purpose is to provide free civil legal assistance to low-income individuals and families, focusing on housing, debt, expungements, guardianships, and related civil issues, with a notable emphasis on the needs of women, children, and the elderly. The society serves eight counties in its designated service area and meets clients face-to-face with attorneys to review and address their legal concerns, often offering practical guidance during the initial meeting and taking a holistic approach to resolution that includes connecting clients with local services. Each year, the organization handles thousands of client requests and supports a significant number of cases through in-court representation, operating within the broader legal services sector as the sole organization in Indianapolis that undertakes guardianships. Recent collaboration with Child Advocates, Inc. reflects a partnership aimed at streamlining services for youths in need of protection and stabilization in the region.
