Las Americas is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization based in El Paso, Texas providing free and low-cost legal services to immigrants and refugees in West Texas, New Mexico and ciudad juarez, mexico.

we have served over 40,000 people from over 77 countries since 1987

Founded in 1987, Las Americas is a homegrown non-profit dedicated to serving the legal needs of low income immigrants, including refugees and asylum seekers, victims of crime, and families seeking reunification.

Las Americas’ attorneys and staff are committed to providing legal representation to those who otherwise would not be able to afford it.

The El Paso port-of-entry sees the second highest number of people crossing into the United States by land, second only to San Diego.

Today, Las Americas continues to be one of very few non-profit legal service providers to assist low-income immigrants in the El Paso region.
