US Laws and legal Issues

Updated for 2026. Step-by-step legal guidance for all 50 states, with official sources, an AI assistant, and tools to take real action — not just read articles.

US Laws & Legal Issues helps everyday people in the United States understand their rights and take action on common legal problems — in plain language, with official sources cited on every answer.

This is not a government app. It is privately owned and is not a substitute for legal advice. For your specific situation, talk to a licensed attorney or legal aid organization.

WHAT MAKES THIS APP DIFFERENT

• State-aware guidance for all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Pick your state once and every workflow routes you to the right agency, court, hotline, or filing portal.

• Every topic, workflow, and resource includes an official source link and a last-reviewed date so you know where the information comes from.

• Step-by-step workflows, not just articles. Save a plan, check off steps, copy or share it, and come back later.

• AI legal assistant that only answers from reviewed app content and official sources — it never invents phone numbers, deadlines, or agencies, and it always shows citations.

• Built-in complaint letter builder for consumer, housing, wage, and agency complaints.

• Works offline. Bundled guidance is available even when you have no signal, and updates pull in automatically when you reconnect.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

• File a consumer or government complaint • Report a scam, fraud, or identity theft • Respond to an eviction notice or housing-discrimination issue • File a wage, overtime, or labor complaint • Request public records or replace vital records (birth certificate, Social Security card, passport documents, marriage records) • Check immigration case status and find help • Respond to an IRS notice or tax dispute • Find legal aid and pro bono lawyers near you • Find an inmate or look up prison information • Find voting help, polling places, and election deadlines • Understand your rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) • Look up federal laws, regulations, and executive orders • Get help with child support, name changes, and family records

LEGAL LEARNING QUIZ

PRIVACY & ACCOUNTS

• Use the app fully without an account • Optional Google or email sign-in to sync bookmarks, saved plans, followed topics, and accessibility settings across devices • In-app data deletion — wipe local data or your cloud account from Settings at any time • Notifications are opt-in and only fire for actionable alerts: election deadlines, process changes, scam alerts, source updates
