LawHelp.org free legal information and legal aid finder
A site that points you to free legal information and nonprofit legal aid providers in your state. It is a starting point for finding a program; it does not appeal a denial for you.

The page describes a way to find free legal help and information about your legal rights from nonprofit legal aid providers in your state, and the Legal Services Corporation page also points to it for legal questions and free legal forms. Content and eligibility depend on your state's providers. The page we read does not address health insurance appeals specifically.
