Economic Justice through Low Cost Legal Services
Reducing the wealth gap w/ affordable legal aid & empowering individuals to pursue economic opportunities & take control of their livelihood
Project Description
I’m the founder and managing partner of Etsah Law. We provide personalized and affordable legal business services and consulting to low income communities, small businesses and individuals. Our mission is to support economic justice by leveraging legal resources to reduce the wealth gap and empower our community to pursue economic opportunities that enable individuals to build wealth and take control of their livelihood. Having grown up in a small trailer with my 8 siblings, often without heat and or running water, I come from a family who struggled for many generations to overcome economic disparity and understand first hand just how important access to affordable resources is.
A recent study showed that 80% of low-income individuals cannot afford legal assistance, with 42% having their legal needs go completely unmet.This lack of access to legal representation, referred to as the ‘justice gap’, not only limits an individual's ability to navigate the complexities of court procedures, but denies them access to justice, the compounding effect of which can last generations. We know reducing the justice gap directly increases an individual’s stability, quality of life and equality in society — which is why we at Etsah Law are so passionate about ensuring equal access to law and justice, because a strong economy fuels a healthy, flourishing community.
