Texas Advocacy Project

The Texas Advocacy Project is a statewide, nonprofit, legal organization that promotes access to justice for Texans in need. Started in 1982 as a legal hotline, the agency has evolved over the years into a leading service provider in the field of family law, particularly where it pertains to helping survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking. We now provide a full range of legal services to victims of these crimes across the state of Texas.


As a referral attorney, you would receive calls from victims of domestic violence needing a 30 minute free consultation. By donating your time and expertise, you would be helping to transform victims into survivors. Representation of a referred caller would be totally at your discretion and by your own terms. We are happy to provide you with training materials concerning domestic violence and with safety plans to distribute to clients in your office.
