Job Description
 
Executive Director
Neighborhood Legal Services
Buffalo, NY

Neighborhood Legal Services seeks an outstanding strategic and collaborative leader to serve as its next Executive Director.
Neighborhood Legal Services (NLS) is a not-for-profit public interest law firm founded 49 years ago to provide free legal services to low-income individuals and families, and persons with disabilities, in Western New York. With offices in Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Batavia, and Lockport, we provide services in a range of areas of urgent legal need, including public benefits, disability law, housing, and family law. Our mission is to pursue equitable justice by providing access to client-specific legal advice, representation, and education to those in our community who, due to financial vulnerability, disability, discrimination, or abuse, require protection and advancement of their civil legal rights.
The Executive Director has the opportunity to lead our exceptional staff of 115 people, including our experienced managers and senior leaders. In 2024, we closed 8052 cases, benefitting 16,580 individual clients and members of their families. We have grown significantly over the years – our current budget is approximately $18 million/year – giving us a solid foundation to meet the needs of our client populations. 
This position is an excellent opportunity for a leader, team-builder, connector and communicator who is passionate about the delivery of justice to marginalized communities.
More about NLS:
Each year, NLS provides free civil legal services to over 8,000 individuals and families in Western New York who cannot afford to hire an attorney. We provide high-quality and innovative legal representation, advice, and community education to countless community members to help with some of life’s greatest challenges: from violence within a family, to a threat to stable living with disabilities. NLS knows that one legal problem can quickly impact other aspects of a client’s life, and our advocates apply a collaborative approach to provide holistic services. Because the need for free legal services outstrips our capacity, we also provide plain-language materials to explain common legal problems to those in our community with unmet legal needs.
While the bulk of our work consists of individual client representation, NLS is also committed to innovating the traditional legal services model to expand our reach. As an example: our Family Law Unit has partnered with the University at Buffalo Law School Family Violence and Women’s Rights Clinic to develop DIY Divorce forms tailored to specific case types. Taking it a step further, NLS attorneys operate legal clinics where they present on the divorce process and the forms to help people fill them out themselves. Such innovations help accommodate both NLS’ limited capacity to provide full representation and the outsized need in our community for legal assistance in family matters.
NLS also prioritizes collaboration with other nonprofits to facilitate access to our services. We work closely with other providers of legal services in Western New York. We are governed by a 15-member Board of Directors that includes lawyers working in our geographic service area, people who are eligible for NLS’s services, and other community members.
