Legal Aid of Nebraska

I was referred to Legal Aid by another Omaha Organization. When I called I was told up front I would have to pay a $30 fee to get started. Somehow they kept using "free" and "$30 fee" in the same sentence. My questions were fairly basic and I found my answers later online. I would highly recommend trying ChatGPT first before calling for anything. ChatGPT is ACTUALLY free. Not free for $30. After my initial contact I received a text to call back and then got pushed the hard sell by someone else. This seems like a scam.

So weird how you can help someone who doesn't need it but someone who needs help you deny them. Brandy I know didnt get all the doctor paperwork because the social worker at 1 place isnt there till next week. So what did you make your decision on? What that its to hard and its Friday and took a week vacation? Unprofessional

I was given their number to contact them regarding a legal matter that another firm didn’t want to take. So I called, spoke briefly to a receptionist with a bad attitude who then transferred me into a phone queue without saying a word, and then I sat on hold for 33 minutes until a recorded message told me to leave a voicemail. I did not. This is the “Ethical Resolution” for attorneys and firms that just don’t want to do their jobs, and the crazy thing is I have the money to pay them upfront! I have no idea how I ended up wasting 33 minutes of my day here, but I’m sympathetic to anyone who has to resort to this place for their legal aid. What a joke!

They never answer the phone. I have called 5 different times. Long wait times (20-30mins) just to get hung up on. Went to the actual office to be found with a sign on the door saying “no walk ins available”. Rang the doorbell at the office, some lady answered saying to call the phone number. What a joke. Non profit that doesn’t seem to be efficient in the community. Will continue to put in a complaint as some auditing needs to be done here.
