AIDS LEGAL SERVICES PROJECT

The AIDS Legal Services Project provides comprehensive legal services to HIV positive individuals who meet certain income and asset ceilings. Direct representation is limited to those situations where no contingency fee arrangements are available through the private bar. When appropriate, the AIDS Legal Services Project will refer individuals to other agencies throughout San Diego County.

Staff and volunteer attorneys provide assistance in a variety of subjects including, but not limited to, estate planning, landlord/tenant disputes, bankruptcy and other debtor/creditor problems, insurance difficulties, family law questions, employment discrimination situations, SSI appeals, tax issues, and confidentiality concerns. The Project does not handle criminal matters or fee-generating cases such as personal injury actions. The AIDS Legal Services Project provides such services through satellite legal clinics held periodically throughout San Diego County, as well as referrals to volunteers.  The satellite clinics are held at the following locations:
