Welcome to Legal Aid Society of San Bernardino. We are a non-profit
organization that has been serving the public for over 50 years. Legal Aid
Society of San Bernardino is a recipient of federal funds awarded by Inland
Counties Legal Services with the approval of the Legal Service Corporation. Our
main goal since establishing the corporation is to provide counseling and legal
services to indigent community members, uphold the rights and privileges of the
indigent regardless of ability to pay, and develop an appreciation and better
understanding of the law and the administration of justice.

court. Additionally, our attorneys can offer quality legal advice and address
any legal questions that arise during the time you meet with our staff.
