ANNAPOLIS — They line up before the doors open, needing help in areas they never imagined — cash assistance, unemployment, food stamps.
In the lobby of the Maryland Legal Aid office, attorneys scramble to find chairs for an overflow of people seeking a legal hand. They’re people such as David Gaines and Margaret Sullivan.
Gaines, a middle-aged Annapolis man, lost his $60,000 job in 2009 and needed help getting his unemployment benefits reinstated. Sullivan, an 82-year-old woman who has worked her entire adult life, was laid off last year from her job at an Annapolis department store. When she had problems obtaining unemployment benefits, she, too, had nowhere else to turn.
In the past, these were not the typical clients at the state’s largest nonprofit organization providing free legal services to the poor. But as the economy has slowed, these former middle-income wage earners are flocking to Maryland Legal Aid to take seats next to the traditional low-income clients.
