Overview

If a person does not have the financial resources to hire an attorney, she is left to navigate the intricate legal system on her own. This is where CLAO can help. To those in Orange County, CA who qualify financially, CLAO offers legal guidance and possibly pro bono representation where appropriate. Christian Legal Aid Office ("CLAO") exists to enable local churches to heed God's call to defend the poor and needy, to administer justice equally and fairly. God's Word encourages Christians to settle their differences out of court; however, there are times when an individual's rights can only be properly defended by use of the legal system.
