Legal Aid Society is a private, non-profit organization that provides free legal services to people with low income. We do not take criminal cases. We only do civil cases - cases where you yourself will not be sent to jail.

We have 8 offices that serve 48 Tennessee counties. Our offices are in Clarksville, Columbia, Cookeville, Gallatin, Murfreesboro, Nashville, Oak Ridge and Tullahoma. To see the list of counties or get contact information for each office, click on "Contact Us" at the top of this page.

We take as many cases as we can. We are sorry we don't have enough lawyers for everyone. What if we can't take your case? We still may be able to give you one-time legal advice. Or tell you where else you can get help. We also have booklets on this website. They may help you with your legal problem.
