Services We Provide

The Pro Bono Project partners with volunteer lawyers to provide free civil legal services across the six parishes we serve.

We focus on core areas of the law and expand our services when community needs rise—especially after disasters.

Our work does not include tort cases (like personal injury), discrimination, or fee-generating matters.

Currently, we provide pro bono help in:

  • Chapter 7 bankruptcy and consumer rights

  • Uncontested divorces and uncontested custody matters

  • Name changes

  • Powers of attorney, interdictions, and tutorships

  • Unpaid wage claims

  • Nonprofit governance support

  • Wills, estates, and uncontested successions

  • Non-emergency housing issues (such as security deposit recovery and habitability)
