About VLP

The Maine Volunteer Lawyers Project is a non-profit legal aid organization that provides free legal information, assistance and representation to people of low income facing civil legal issues.  VLP's legal services are provided entirely by community and attorney volunteers supported and supervised by a small staff. Our mission is to make "justice for all" a reality in Maine by giving people the knowledge, tools and support to be equal participants in our justice system.

VLP is a joint project of Pine Tree Legal Assistance and the Maine Bar Foundation. We receive funding from the federal Legal Services Corporation, the Maine Bar Foundation, the Maine Civil Legal Services Fund, the Campaign for Justice, the Muskie Fund for Legal Services and various public and private funders and individual donors.
