Legal Action of Wisconsin (LAW) provides free legal services to community members who could not otherwise afford representation. Earlier this year LAW began the Eviction Defense Project in Dane County. The aim is to provide representation to more tenants facing an eviction and homelessness by defending against unlawful evictions and negotiating settlements in other cases that will allow clients to remain in housing or to find new housing. In its first three months of operation, this project has already assisted 61 households.
