The mission of Legal Services of the Hudson Valley is to provide free, high quality counsel in civil matters for poor and low-income individuals and families who cannot afford to pay an attorney where basic human needs are at stake.
Legal Services of the Hudson Valley was founded in 1967, and is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing free, high-quality legal counsel in civil matters where basic human needs are at stake for poor and low-income families and individuals who cannot afford an attorney. With the gap separating those who can and cannot afford legal representation widening each day, we work to ensure that everyone has access to justice, regardless of their ability to pay. As the only provider of comprehensive civil legal services to all seven counties of the lower and mid-Hudson Valley (Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, Rockland, Orange, Ulster and Sullivan), LSHV is proud to impact tens of thousands of people each year.
We are the recipient of Legal Services Corporation funding for the region and provide a full array of services to low-income individuals and families to meet their legal needs for the essentials of life.".
The work we do each day provides justice to tens of thousands of our neighbors who have nowhere else to turn.
Our funding empowers us to:
Save children from neglect;
Protect survivors of domestic violence;
Defend seniors against abuse;
Serve veterans on the home front;
Support the rights of the disabled;
Keep families in their homes.
In 1967, Legal Services of the Hudson Valley originally incorporated as Westchester Legal Services. In 1995 we added Putnam and Dutchess Counties, and in 2004, Rockland, Orange, Ulster and Sullivan Counties. Our name has evolved to reflect the geographic expansion of our service area. We serve these seven counties from nine offices including White Plains (corporate office), Yonkers, Mount Vernon, Peekskill, Spring Valley, Kingston, Newburgh, Monticello, and Poughkeepsie.Legal Services of the Hudson Valley Address
