The Law Center maintains a wide network of collaborative partners throughout Georgia. This enables our staff to connect our clients to a wide variety of social services including affordable housing, child care, mental health and substance abuse treatment, Veterans services, and more. In addition to our posted intake hours, we also conduct intake onsite at several shelters throughout metro Atlanta.
If you are interested in having a Law Center staff member conduct intake onsite at your shelter, or if you would like to be added to our network of collaborative partners, please contact Swechhya Pant.
The Georgia Law Center for the Homeless sees 1,000+ clients and their families in a given year. On average, our staff generate over $300,000 for clients yearly via successful wage claims, securing benefits, reducing debt, procuring child support, and more. In addition to securing income, we are successful at reversing wrongful evictions, preventing other evictions—which helps families avoid homelessness altogether, and removing other obstacles to permanent housing. Our attorneys have a 98% success rate in court.
