Pro Bono legal service is at the core of VOLS’ mission and impact. Volunteer lawyers contribute valuable legal expertise and direct client service capacity, and the VOLS’ legal team provides support, training, and ongoing mentorship to ensure high quality and a seamless experience. We support pro bono service on matters that fit our volunteers’ legal background, interest areas, or both. We provide volunteers with substantive training and ongoing support from our expert legal team.
