Volunteer Lawyer Support for ArchCity Defenders

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with ArchCity Defenders. We have a variety of opportunities available and hope we can find the right fit for you. We could use lawyers willing to share their expertise and experience by consulting in specific practice areas or hosting training opportunities for our staff. We are always in need of legal research, drafting assistance, or help with document review. Finally, we would love to connect you with clients in need of legal representation.

We have training opportunities to help you learn and navigate our practice areas. We will provide you with sample documents and pleadings and technical assistance to help facilitate your representation. ACD's malpractice insurance will cover your volunteer work as part of the project if you do not have your own coverage for these types of cases. We will also assist with the conflict checks necessary to help you meet your own professional responsibility obligations.

Please provide as much information below as possible and give detailed answers about your experience and interests. The more information we get from you upfront, the easier it will be for us to get you plugged in with this work. If we are not able to find something that is a good fit for you at this time, we will stay in touch and let you know about future opportunities as they arise.

We sincerely appreciate your interest and look forward to connecting with you.
