The Law Project is very pleased that once again its attorneys and advocates can provide legal and advocacy assistance to individuals and families in the community who are receiving services from the Division. The Law Project has provided representation to residents of New Jersey for forty years through its five regional offices and four satellite offices.

Housing advocacy such as landlord-tenant disputes
Public entitlements, including eligibility for SSI, SSDI, public assistance, and food stamps
Medicaid, Medicare, and other healthcare issues such as managed care disputes
Child support, visitation, domestic violence
Barrier-free accessibility, American with Disabilities Act and New Jersey Law Against Discrimination matters
Surrogate decision making issues including wills, living wills, advance directives, powers of attorney, and uncontested guardianships (also limited guardianship and conservatorship)
