Attorney Volunteers

Volunteers are the heart of the Volunteer Lawyers Project:

• The community volunteers and college students who field calls from people in need of legal help and connect them with the resources that are available.
• The interns who interview clients before meeting with CHAP & Clinic attorneys.
• The attorneys who act as Lawyers of the Day, placing cases with attorneys around the state.
• The Pro Bono attorneys who provide their services free of charge to assist low-income Maine people with their legal problems.
• The law students & attorneys on the Family Law Helpline who assist pro se  clients.
• The Domestic Violence Pro Bono Panel who help clients with protection from abuse cases.
• The VLP Advisory Committee who helps with governance of the VLP.

We have created separate areas of our website for each of these groups of volunteers where they can find resources, information and documents to help with their work. These areas are password protected.
