Description
Wary of mission creep here, but on the other hand it occurred to me that this might be another category that someone "needs now". I.e. if you're about to be denied your SSI benefits, or you're an undocumented person facing deportation-- etc. etc.-- legal services might be a crisis need for you in that moment. Thoughts?

Research direction
The issue does not name files, tests, or an entry point. Review how the existing top-level service categories are defined and displayed, then clarify whether legal services should be included and what resources belong in that category; done requires an agreed scope before implementation.
