In 2022, 1,095 cases were closed by our MLPs.$387,381
Legal VictoriesLAFLA achieved the following legal victories in 2022:Chancellor Apartment Disability Discrimination Settlement: LAFLA, along with co-counsel, represented 12 low-income individuals with mobility disabilities who reside at a 100-unit, five story apartment building served by an elevator, and the clients live or lived on the upper floors. The clients required the use of an operable elevator to access their homes and the community, without which they must choose between two undesirable options: either they climb as many as four flights of stairs, causing them pain and distress and risking their safety; or they become isolated in their apartments, restricting their engagement in the community and daily life activities (including critical medical appointments) because they cannot safely reach the ground floor to exit the building.The landlord failed to maintain an operable elevator, providing intermittent service from 2015, and ceasing operation altogether in 2018. After extensive arms-length negotiations which included three mediation sessions, LAFLA was able to reach a comprehensive settlement agreement. The settlement includes $570,000 for all clients and a broad injunctive relief agreement that remains in effect for 24 months. The injunctive relief agreement includes disability-related repairs to the building and elevator, an accessible emergency evacuation plan that includes physical changes to the building, training of staff on disability and fair housing laws, and a relocation plan when the elevator is out of service.Strategic Actions for a Just Economy (SAJE), Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment (ACCE) Action v. The California Department of Housing and Community Development and Gustavo Velasquez, in his official capacity as the Director of the California Department of Housing and Community Development. LAFLA, along with co-counsel, filed this case seeking relief on behalf of thousands of low income tenants who applied for COVID-19 rental assistance from the State of California. The case alleges that the state's Emergency Rental Assistance Program issued denial notices and handled appeals in a constitutionally deficient way and denied applicants due process of law. Further, these failures resulted in disproportionate harms on the basis of race, color, and national origin. The case also alleges the state's failure to adequately provide public records regarding the program. The goal of the case is to require the state to issue adequate notices and ensure that all people, regardless of race or language, are adequately informed of the reason they are denied assistance and have a meaningful opportunity to appeal. Plaintiffs obtained a preliminary injunction in July, 2022, enjoining the state from issuing denial notices until such notices are constitutionally sufficient. In October, 2022, we successfully defeated an attempt to lift or modify the injunction.Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles; Silvia Hernandez; Asian Americans Advancing Justice - Asian Law Caucus; Center for Workers' Rights; and Chinese for Affirmative Action v. California Employment Development Department and Nancy Farias, in her official capacity as Director, California Employment Development Department: California's Employment Development Department (EDD) failed to provide legally sufficient interpreting, other spoken/signed language services, and translated materials (written) to linguistically marginalized communities. Without language services, EDD applicants relied on untrained bilingual family and friends, community businesses who provide access for profit, or struggled through in a language they are not proficient in. Claimants who do not speak or read English struggled to find accurate information, file claims, certify for unemployment insurance, or troubleshoot issue with their benefits. This lack of meaningful language services also resulted in adverse credibility findings against our clients and denials, which have had to be resolved through additional levels of advocacy and appeals. LAFLA, as well as many other organizations, had to shift significant resources to assist claimants access EDD and obtain critical benefits.The parties entered into a settlement agreement addressing EDD's provision of meaningful language access through: proper identification and recording of language needs, providing timely spoken and signed language services in real-time, increasing multilingual telephonic access, expanding written translations of vital documents (including ensuring Babel notices are distributed), extending deadlines due to language barriers and good cause, developing a multilingual access portal, increasing staffing to coordinate language services, ensuring that modernization efforts include technology to capture language needs and can produce mass generation of translated personalized vital information, ensuring that third-party vendors also comply with language access obligations, enhancing community outreach to linguistically marginalized communities, forming of a Multilingual Access Advisory Board, enhancing data collection and internal monitoring, and requiring regular monitoring/reporting of efforts to advocates during the compliance period which extends to April 2024. These provisions complement and provide more detailed directives around many of the new legislative changes, as well as other existing legal mandates.George v. McDonough - Amicus Brief to the U.S. Supreme Court: LAFLA contributed to an amicus brief to Supreme Court of the United States on this case which involves an invalid denial of veterans benefits. A 2021 report from the Office of the Inspector General found that the Veterans Administration improperly denied more than 12,000 claims during the COVID-19 pandemic due to error. VA benefits including service-connected compensation and non-service connected pensions are often a veteran's only source of income, particularly if they are unable to work due to their disability. For veterans who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, in particular, these benefits are a major part of their economic stability. Accordingly, denial of these benefits serve to further entrench veterans in poverty. The decision in this case will ultimately affect our veteran clients' ability to appeal previous erroneous denials of their VA Benefits based on the VA's invalid interpretation of applicable law.Garcia v. City of Los Angeles: The litigation centers on the civil rights of unhoused individuals who are living in tents and makeshift encampments in the City of Los Angeles. The litigation challenges the seizure and destruction of unhoused individuals' belongings. The case challenges the constitutionality of an ordinance in Los Angeles that allows the City to seize and destroy unhoused residents' belongings. Plaintiffs allege that the ordinance violates the Fourth and Fourteenth amendment. They seek declarative relief that the ordinance is unconstitutional, and injunctive relief to prevent the seizure and destruction of property. In 2020, plaintiffs obtained preliminary injunction enjoining ordinance targeting unhoused people; contempt ruling against the City for violating the preliminary injunction. Defendant appealed to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. In 2021, the preliminary injunction was upheld by the 9th Circuit.In 2022, the City of Los Angeles repealed the ordinance that was subject to facial challenge. The plaintiffs also obtained discovery sanctions against the City of Los Angeles.
$1,251,844$2,130Project Impact and LAHSA Measure H funds projects to supplement other programs within the organization, to support the continuing fight for justice.
$2,072,998$7,310Economic Stability: Assists vulnerable populations in obtaining and maintaining critical safety net benefits that helps them get food, housing, and medical care or services; Fights wage theft, wrongful terminations and discriminatory employment practices; Discharges student loans based on disability or school fraud. In fact, LAFLA is the only legal services organization in the country that, for over 30 years, has consistently sought justice for low-income student loan borrowers and worked to change a higher education system that increasingly ignores the needs and experiences of low-income borrowers. In 2022, LAFLA closed 1,888 cases in these areas of law.

Part IV, Line 2b:LAFLA holds funds in trust for its clients relating to settlements awarded by the courts and deposits held for filing and other fees.
Part V, Line 4:Endowment funds are appropriated by the Board for use in current operations.
Part X, Line 2:LAFLA is exempt from taxation under Internal Revenue Code Section 501(c)(3) and California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23701d. Generally accepted accounting principles provide accounting and disclosure guidance about positions taken by an organization in its tax returns that might be uncertain. Management has considered its tax positions and believes that all positions taken by LAFLA in its federal and state exempt organization tax returns are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. LAFLA's returns are subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities, generally for three and four years, respectively, after they filed.

Form 990, Part III, Line 1LAFLA is a nonprofit law firm that protects and advances the rights of the most underserved - leveling the playing field and ensuring that everyone can have access to the justice system. For over 90 years, LAFLA has provided free civil legal services to people living in poverty across Greater Los Angeles. LAFLA serves communities as diverse as Pico Union and Westlake, East Los Angeles, the Westside, South Los Angeles, Koreatown and Long Beach. Our unique combination of neighborhood offices, self-help centers at courthouses, and domestic violence clinics puts LAFLA on the front lines in vulnerable communities, and at the forefront of change. LAFLA takes care of the most vulnerable people in our community: the working poor, homeless, unemployed, elderly, disabled, domestic abuse survivors, victims of torture and human trafficking, and veterans of Los Angeles, by providing free legal services. LAFLA also provides free legal education, outreach, and self-help assistance to litigants and community members, allowing for additional access to justice for low-income persons in need. Over 99% of the people served by LAFLA are low-income. LAFLA assists more than 100,000 people in civil legal matters annually by providing free direct legal representation and other legal assistance for people living in poverty in Greater Los Angeles County. In 2022, we also provided important legal information and education to 22,194 self-represented litigants and gave 15,358 referrals. We are committed to promoting access to justice, strengthening communities, fighting discrimination, and effecting systemic change through representation, advocacy, and community education. LAFLA has a culturally diverse staff who provide critical legal services, counseling, and referrals at five offices in the neighborhoods of Pico-Union and Westlake, East Los Angeles, South Los Angeles, Santa Monica and Long Beach. They speak many languages including Spanish, Korean, Cantonese, Mandarin, Khmer, Japanese and Vietnamese.
