Detroit Resources
Detroit nonprofit law center that advocates for workers and low-income communities on issues such as wage theft, workers' rights, utility justice and environmental justice. Call to set up an appointment.
The Sugar Law Center is a Detroit-based public interest law organization founded in honor of labor lawyer Maurice Sugar. It works with workers and community groups on economic and social justice cases.
Workers who have been underpaid, misclassified or retaliated against often cannot afford a lawyer. Sugar Law is one of the few Detroit organizations focused specifically on these problems.
Call ahead for an appointment rather than walking in. Be ready to explain what happened and bring any records you have; if they cannot take your matter, ask for a referral.
A small nonprofit that chooses cases based on its mission and capacity; it is not a general legal aid office and cannot take every individual claim.
