The Legal Resources for the Elderly Program (LREP) is a free, statewide legal helpline, which is a joint project of the New Mexico State Bar Foundation and the New Mexico Aging and Long-Term Services Department. Available for New Mexico residents age 55 and older. Helpline attorneys provide legal advice and brief services. Each caller who is eligible for the Program gets to speak to one of LREP’s five staff attorneys.
Legal Assistance
Included in this list are organizations that provide free or low-cost legal services to victims of abuse and others who qualify. Even if the organization does not have a lawyer available to represent you in court, you may want to ask if there is a lawyer who you can consult with to get advice. Please note that we list the organizations by the town/city or county where the office is located – however, many offices may likely serve multiple counties. We indicate the “counties served” whenever possible. You can click “View All” to look through the complete list of organizations.
