Pro Bono Opportunities for Attorneys

We need your help! We cannot take cases without the volunteer support of pro bono attorneys. You do not need to have any prior knowledge of domestic violence law. You supply the energy, we supply the expertise. Opportunities are numerous and allow pro bono attorneys to engage in limited and defined projects with a clear timeline and few out-of-pocket costs:

- Draft a memorandum on the viability of incoming cases for appeal
- Research and write two appellate briefs and obtain feedback on work product from domestic violence experts
- Perform oral argument before a 3-judge appellate panel (and obtain feedback during a moot oral argument in preparation)
- Be mentored by experienced practitioners
- Receive a comprehensive training manual including applicable local rules, statutes, and sample briefs
