Texas Veterans Legal Assistance Project 

​

The Texas Veterans Legal Assistance Project is a statewide project dedicated to providing legal assistance at no charge to low-income veterans, their spouses, their dependents, and surviving spouses of deceased veterans.

​

Veterans Benefits

Discharge Upgrades

Sealing Criminal Records

Contract Disputes

Consumer Protections

Divorce, Custody, and Child Support

Education (Ex. GI Bill, Hazelwood, Student Loans)

Employment Discrimination

Housing, Bankruptcy, and Foreclosure

Medicare and Medicaid

Estate Planning

Individual Rights

Guardianships and Powers of Attorney

​

​

ELIGIBILITY

You must be a Texas resident. You must be a veteran or the spouse, surviving spouse, or a dependent (a minor child or an adult child with disabilities living with the parents) of a veteran. Your household income must be at or below 200% of the Federal Poverty Guidelines.
