Mission

The DC Affordable Law Firm ('DCALF') was created in 2015 as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt charitable entity by Georgetown University Law Center and two major law firms, DLA Piper and Arent Fox. Its mission is to serve D.C. residents who have been largely ignored: those with modest incomes who do not qualify for free legal aid and cannot afford the rates lawyers normally charge. DCALF's primary practice areas are: family law, landlord/tenant law, immigration law, probate and estate planning, and small business/non-profits serving distressed areas.
