We're so proud of our housing attorney, Anna Belinski-Huber. From the article.

“For many of us, if we were in a housing situation [with] mold or cockroaches or lack of hot water, we would move,” Belinski-Huber said. “The issue becomes when you can't afford it, and you are stuck in your housing because it's the cheapest thing you can find, and the alternative is homelessness, and most of my clients are in that position.”

Through her work with Alpine Legal Services, Belinski-Huber leads information sessions about tenants’ rights and facilitates tenant-landlord mediation.

Please reach out to Alpine Legal Services if you need legal assistance. We are here for the community who otherwise couldn't afford an attorney.
