SeniorLAW Center is committed to serving older people during the COVID-19 pandemic
Our staff continues to provide services to our older clients and communities who are disproportionately impacted by this crisis. In response to the Governor’s directive, all SeniorLAW Center physical offices are closed (as are many courts), but our entire staff is working and accessible remotely. Older people needing our services should contact us by phone at:

  • 215.988.1242 (Philadelphia)
  • 610.910.0210 (Bucks/Montgomery)
  • 610.910.0215 (Delaware/Chester)
  • or statewide at 1.877.PA SR LAW (1.877.727.7529)
 
We are continually updating our COVID-19 and older adults' resources page on our website in these uncertain times. To reduce isolation and fear, we are reaching out to all current clients to check on their safety and well-being and to address their needs holistically. Join us in making extra efforts to ensure the older people in our lives are safe, healthy and connected.
