Through a combination of individual representation, high impact litigation and public policy advocacy, Neighborhood Legal Services of Los Angeles combats the immediate and long-lasting effects of poverty and expands access to health, opportunity, and justice in Los Angeles’ diverse neighborhoods.
NLSLA is looking to build a team of volunteer lawyers to be available through and after the COVID Shelter in Place period.
Valley Community Legal Foundation, the community service arm of the San Fernando Valley Bar Association, heartily supports this effort and encourages Bar members, if able, to volunteer their time and talent to help individuals seeking legal assistance through NLSLA.
Specifically, attorneys who practice in the following areas: employment law (employees); housing (homeless, tenants and borrowers); consumer law (credit card debt and other debt); bankruptcy; family law; and domestic violence/restraining orders.
Please contact Skip Koenig or Mally Ponce to have your name added to the list of pro bono volunteers. The anticipated need when life gets back into motion is great.
