SALA is a non-profit elder law office whose mission is to support older persons in their efforts to live independently, non-institutionalized, and with dignity.  Established in 1973, SALA provides free legal services and community education to Santa Clara County residents who are age 60 or older. There is no income eligibility qualification to use SALA’s services. SALA’s attorney staff provides a range of legal services from simple advice/referrals to comprehensive legal representation.  SALA’s caseload consists of legal matters that private attorneys typically do not handle and that have a great impact on elders most in need in our community.
