Founded in 1981, Greater Chicago Legal Clinic boasts a storied history and a legacy of providing affordable, high-quality legal services for the most underserved populations in the Chicagoland community. From our original storefront office in South Chicago to our expansion into the Pilsen, Austin, and downtown neighborhoods to our projected growth into the Cook County suburbs, our hardworking staff have long served as community justice advocates meeting the civil legal needs of Chicagoland's working class.Recognizing that most working-class families do not have sufficient resources to hire private attorneys, GCLC provides a sliding-scale fee approach that provides access to justice for disadvantaged individuals and families, even if they do not qualify for pro bono legal aid. This unique approach allows GCLC clients to resolve their legal disputes and get back to what matters most to them—regardless of their ability to pay. Our attorneys are known for their compassionate but zealous advocacy, their accessibility to clients regardless of their English-speaking proficiency, and their dedication to relentlessly pursuing successful outcomes for our clients. We are there for our clients when they need us, filling the socioeconomic and geographic gaps left by our peers. Through our efforts and outreach, GCLC has been able to assist hundreds of thousands of clients in our Chicagoland neighborhoods, restoring hope and providing stability to our most vulnerable communities.
