About Western New York Law Center (WNYLC), Inc.

Western New York Law Center (WNYLC), Inc. is a not-for-profit civil legal services organization based in Buffalo. It was formed in 1996 after federal rules limited the types of cases that Legal Services Corporation grantees could accept, and it works to fill the civil legal gaps those rules left for low-income residents of Western New York. Beyond direct representation, it also provides policy advocacy and legal education.

Its practice work covers consumer debt defense, foreclosure defense, representation of tenants facing eviction, bankruptcy matters, and housing discrimination assistance. It runs a Small Business Legal Clinic for low-income entrepreneurs and a CLARO consumer debt clinic, both held at Buffalo City Court. Its main office is at 37 Franklin Street in Buffalo, open on weekdays, and its listed service area includes Erie, Niagara and several other western New York counties.
