Bailey B., AI Legal Assistant
Bay Area Legal Services is pioneering new pathways to justice. Introducing Bailey B., our legal information chatbot — because justice begins with access.
Powered by LawDroid, Bailey B. is designed to help you understand your legal rights and options by providing free, reliable legal information.
- How Bailey B. Works
-
Bailey B. is powered by AI technology and trained using approved legal information and curated resources. Bailey B. looks for answers based on:
- Trusted legal aid content
- Program-approved knowledge base materials
- General legal information sources
- Structured guidance created with legal experts from Bay Area Legal Services
Content is reviewed and updated by Bay Area Legal Services staff — not based on unverified internet sources.
Sometimes Bailey B. may not have enough information to answer a question.
When that happens, Bailey B. will:
- Tell you it isn’t sure
- Suggest another way to ask the question
- Point you to helpful resources
- Direct you to Bay Area Legal Services or another trusted source
- Encourage you to speak with a legal professional
If your question is complex, urgent, or very specific, a human advocate is the best next step.

-
Bailey B. is helpful — but it has limits.
Bailey B. is not:

Bailey B. cannot represent you in court or create an attorney-client relationship.

-
You should contact a lawyer or legal aid office if:
- Your court date is coming up
- You received legal papers
- You are facing eviction, foreclosure, or loss of benefits

- You need legal advice specific to your facts
Bailey B. can help you take the first step, but sometimes you need a human advocate.
