| In the early years from 1876-1965, Civil legal assistance for poor people in the United States began in New York City in 1876 with the founding of the Legal Aid Society of New York. The legal aid movement caught on in urban areas. By 1965 virtually every major city had some kind of programme. One hundred and fifty-seven organizations had employed over 400 full time lawyers with an aggregate budget of nearly 4.5 million. There was no national programme as such. |
