Who We Are

New York Lawyers for the Public Interest (NYLPI) has fought for more than 40 years to protect civil rights and achieve lived equality for communities in need. NYLPI combines the power of law, organizing, and the private bar to make lasting change where it’s needed most.

Our staff attorneys, community organizers and advocates provide direct representation, advocacy and assistance to low-income New Yorkers in the areas of disability justice, environmental justice, health justice, immigrant justice, and community justice.

Our Pro Bono Clearinghouse provides nonprofits and community groups with free legal assistance and capacity-building on a wide range of issues, drawing on hundreds of lawyers from New York’s most prestigious law firms and corporate legal departments.
