Experts Guide by Priority Legal Areas

The Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles has developed an Experts Guide which allows local and national journalists to identify and connect with attorneys who specialize in LAFLA’s priority legal areas: housing & eviction defense, consumer, family law, employment, immigration, government benefits, community economic development and services to the Asian Pacific & Islander communities. These experts help journalists to create more compelling and authoritative stories. For all other questions, or to arrange an interview an interview with any of these experts, please contact Sara Gomez directly at (323) 801-7981 or e-mail sgomez@lafla.org.

Note: Please do not call this number if you need legal assistance. For legal assistance, please call (800) 399-4529.
