Our Approach

We collaborated with the client to develop a program to help families with heirs’ property matters, which involves land or real estate inherited without a will or clear legal documentation. We partnered with LEARN VA, to identify individuals eligible for the program, and assisted families by providing them with the necessary legal tools and support to stabilize property ownership.

The Outcome

This partnership stabilizes property ownership and empowers families, preventing costly partition disputes. The program enhances access to preventative legal services as a means to advance environmental justice and community resilience.
