PASSAIC RESIDENTS: TEMPORARY OFFICE CLOSURE
Due to unforeseen circumstances involving the building, the Passaic County office of Northeast New Jersey Legal Services is temporarily closed to the public.
Our staff will continue to work remotely and provide services during our normal business hours. For assistance, feel free to call us, email us or visit another NNJLS office.
We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding. Please check this website and our social media for updates on when the Passaic County office will reopen.
SEPTEMBER IS NATIONAL RECOVERY MONTH!
RECOVERY SOMETIMES TAKES MORE THAN TREATMENT. BUT YOU ARE NOT ALONE.
There is a Network of Support
NNJLS provides free legal services in housing, public benefits, expungement, and more! With 100+ partners, NNJLS can also connect you to trusted services and support throughout your community.
The mission of Northeast New Jersey Legal Services (NNJLS) is to ensure equal access to justice for low-income residents of Bergen, Hudson, and Passaic Counties in New Jersey. We believe that no one should be denied the opportunity to have their day in court simply because they cannot afford a lawyer.
