Boston VLP

Welcome to the Volunteer Lawyers Project of the Boston Bar Association

The Volunteer Lawyers Project of the Boston Bar Association (VLP) provides free civil legal assistance to low-income residents of Greater Boston, primarily through the pro bono services of private attorneys. With your help, VLP makes access to justice possible for people who cannot afford a lawyer. Find out about our volunteer opportunities for attorneys and law students.

Please join us. Your time is precious. Use it to make a difference.

See VLP's 2010 Annual Report.

Congratulations New Bar Admittees!

We honor your hard work and dedication and welcome you to the bar. Pro bono is a great way for you to gain valuable practice experience, learn about different areas of law, and build your professional networks. Check out our pro bono opportunities. Whatever your interests, background and time constraints, there is place for you at VLP.

Help Needed with Document Translation

Bilingual volunteers: we need your help in meeting the needs of our increasingly linguistically diverse client base. We are looking for volunteers, including students, attorneys and other professionals, to translate documents from English into other languages. We need assistance in the following languages: Portuguese, Haitian Creole, Chinese, Arabic and Vietnamese. There are several documents that need to be translated and most of them are one or two pages. We need this done by mid - December. If you have the skills and time to help, please email VLP Chief Counsel Lynn Girton. Many, many thanks for considering this volunteer opportunity.
