Legal Organization Directory

The Tenants Union provides non-legal online information, advocacy, and in-person counseling on housing matters in SF. They act more as a support center for self help than as a legal advocate, and are mostly run by volunteers.

Tenderloin Housing Clinic primarily represents seniors, the disabled, and minority and immigrant families, often in eviction proceedings or in efforts to address substandard housing conditions.

Through its helpline, the Transgender Law Center provides information and advice about issues related to gender expression (gender and name change, employment discrimination, health care access, public accommodations discrimination, etc.). Full representation is typically reserved for cases with a potential far-reaching legal impact.
