National Lawyers Guild: Lawyer Referral Service (Mass. Chapter)

The Massachusetts Chapter of the National Lawyers Guild works to change the structure of our political and economic system. They seek to unite the legal community with organizers and activists in the service of the people, to the end that human rights shall be regarded as more sacred than property interests.

• Street Law Clinics 
  • The Street Law Clinic Project (SLC) conducts clinics to educate people about their legal rights and methods to fight for justice. Under the supervision of NLG-Mass Chapter attorneys, law students conduct these clinics in community organizations, schools, shelters, and places of worship.

• Litigation Committee
  • The Litigation Committee is comprised of attorneys, legal workers, and law students. Striving to protect people from policies and practices that perpetuate social, racial, and economic injustice, they bring civil lawsuits against large institutions such as government agencies, law enforcement, banks, financial institutions, and corporations that cause harm.
