Helping Disaster Survivors Start the Recovery Process
We have all experienced a disaster in Louisiana at one point or another. Oftentimes, we have many questions about what to do next. ALSC can help you work out the details of your disaster-related legal issue.
Navigating Legal Challenges after Disaster
Did you know that after a disaster, legal problems can be just as serious as the storm itself? After hurricanes, floods, tornadoes, or other severe weather, survivors often face a second disaster – dealing with legal issues. These problems can be long-lasting and hard to manage without help.

Finding Light in the Darkness:
BETTY’s STORY
After Hurricane Laura, Betty Larce’s inherited home was badly damaged, but legal succession – costing $3,000 to $5,000 – stood in the way of repairs. With no job or savings, rebuilding seemed impossible. Through ALSC’s partnership with RESTORE LA, she received legal help to complete succession, clear her title and secure her home.

Online Resources
Acadiana Legal Service Corporation partners with many resources across Louisiana to provide you with the most current legal education available. We offer a wide range of topics to help you find the legal information you need. Browse our brochures and connect with our partners for more legal topics to help you understand if you have a civil legal issue and whether you want to pursue legal action as a self-represented litigant (SRL) or hire an attorney. All legal resources, including articles and court forms, available on our website can help you better understand and advocate for your rights. However, these resources should not replace legal advice from qualified attorneys licensed in Louisiana who are familiar with your specific legal issue. Always seek legal advice directly from a lawyer.
