What are the responsibilities and job description for the General Volunteer - Pro Bono position at THE LEGAL AID SOCIETY?
Attorneys, law students, and other volunteers work in partnership with Legal Aid Society staff in order to expand our ability to provide legal services to a greater number of clients and communities.
All pro bono referrals have been screened by our attorneys and legal professionals who are experts in the field. Those same experts remain on the case to provide mentorship and guidance throughout the representation. Volunteer opportunities are often available throughout our three main practice areas; Civil, Criminal Defense and Juvenile Rights.
