Thanks for stopping by the Web Portal for the Cowlitz-Wahkiakum Legal Aid (CWLA) program.

Located in Longview, Washington, CWLA serves low-income residents in Cowlitz and Wahkiakum Counties by providing access to low-cost and free civil legal advice and services. We hold advice clinics as well as partner volunteer attorneys with clients in need to provide critical legal assistance.

This program provides advice, brief services and potential full representation for clients whose income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines.

Clients are referred to the program for attorney advice and services through Northwest Justice Project's CLEAR hotline.

The agency was founded in 1999 after budget cuts eliminated the Columbia Legal Services office in the area, leaving a void in affordable access to justice in the two rural Washington counties.

We are located at:

 1526 Commerce Ave. Longview, WA 98632

upstairs in the CAP building.

CWLA is a proud partner agency with the United Way of Cowlitz/Wahkiakum County!
