The Southern Nevada Senior Law Program is dedicated to protecting our most vulnerable seniors in Clark, Esmeralda, Lincoln, and Nye Counties. As a trusted nonprofit, we are honored to be a steward for cy pres award donations.
What is a Cy Pres Award?
Rooted in the French term meaning “as near as possible,” a cy pres award allows undistributed class action settlement funds to be directed to a nonprofit when they cannot reach their intended recipients. Given our mission and the critical need for legal services for seniors in our community, we are considered an excellent recipient of these funds.
Your firm’s cy pres designation can help us:
✅ Provide free legal aid to seniors in need, especially those who are experiencing elder abuse and elder exploitation
✅ Advocate for justice and protection
✅ Ensure no vulnerable resident is left behind
