The Human Trafficking Legal Center is a nonprofit organization in the legal services field, based in Washington, DC. It operates as a bridge to justice for trafficking survivors in the United States and around the world. The center concentrates on strategic litigation to halt trafficking and forced labor, leveraging a network of pro bono attorneys who provide free legal representation to survivors. Through civil litigation and criminal prosecutions, it seeks to hold traffickers accountable and secure compensation that helps survivors reclaim their lives. In addition to pursuing cases, the organization monitors federal government activities and works to influence federal policy in ways that benefit trafficking survivors. In May 2026, King & Spalding LLP's Washington, DC office partnered with the center to expand pro bono collaboration.
