Legal Hospice of Texas

Legal Hospice of Texas is a nonprofit, 501(c)(3) law firm established in 1989 to specifically address the health related, civil legal needs of low-income individuals diagnosed with a terminal illness or HIV-disease. LHT provides free legal counsel, representation, and advocacy to clients who are HIV positive or terminally ill; cannot afford an attorney; reside in one of the 16 north central Texas counties that we serve and have legal challenges relating to or impacting their health.

Our mission is to provide timely and compassionate legal services to low-income individuals with terminal illnesses or HIV-disease. Our vision is a community in which people, regardless of health or economic status, have access to justice. Legal Hospice of Texas is the only organization in Dallas completely dedicated to meeting the health related legal needs of this special-need, target population – the low-income, terminally ill.
