Attorney Volunteer Interest Form
Thank you for your interest in the Maine Volunteer Lawyers Project (VLP).  VLP is a legal aid organization that recruits volunteer lawyers to provide free legal information, advice and representation to Mainers with low incomes who have civil legal problems.  Volunteer attorneys play a crucial role in promoting access to justice.  

VLP offers both full and limited representation pro bono opportunities.    We also offer the Justice Andrew Mead Fellowship for Pro Bono Service to new members of the Maine Bar and provide support to inactive and retired attorneys applying for emeritus status and to attorneys licensed in other jurisdictions who wish to apply to be permitted to do pro bono with VLP.  

If you are interested in learning more about volunteering, the Fellowship, emeritus status, options for attorneys licensed in other jurisdictions, or in signing up to volunteer, please complete the form below and a VLP team member will contact you.  We look forward to connecting with you!

If you are looking for help with a civil legal issue, please visit our website at Maine Volunteer Lawyers Project (vlp.org) for more information about our services and fill out an Intake Request Form.  We cannot respond to requests for legal help submitted through this form.

Full Representation Volunteer Opportunities:
The VLP refers civil legal matters to attorneys who have offered to provide pro bono services.  The attorneys may provide an initial consultation before deciding whether to accept the case for more extended representation.  If you would like to be added to our contact list regarding full representation pro bono opportunities, please indicate below which matter types are of interest to you.  There is no obligation to volunteer if you are on the list.  If we contact you regarding a case referral, you may always decline or provide an initial limited consultation to assess whether you wish to take the case. 
Limited Representation Volunteer Opportunities: Please indicate whether you are interested in learning more about the following limited representation opportunities which include 2-hour virtual clinics and other programs.  You may volunteer as frequently as you wish - once a year or on a regular basis.  There is no ongoing obligation to the client after your clinic session or other limited representation legal consult.
 Please indicate below whether you are interested in helping VLP in other ways, such as by volunteering for the Lawyer to Lawyer Program (contacting attorneys regarding full representation opportunities) or assisting with training/CLE programs, researching legal issues, mentoring other volunteer attorneys, reviewing resource materials for volunteers or other activities.
