WE NEED YOUR INPUT
2023 Private Attorney Involvement Plan
The Legal Aid Society’s Volunteer Lawyer Program coordinates and manages the volunteer efforts of attorneys, paralegals, and law students to address the legal needs of Legal Aid clients. Each year, we produce a Private Attorney Involvement Plan to ensure that we meet our clients’ needs and reflect new changes in the law. We want your input!
Check out our 2023 Private Attorney Involvement Plan here and send your comments to Tracey Taylor, our Director of Volunteer Services and Community Engagement.
LEGAL AID SOCIETY'S ANNUAL EVENT IS BACK… with a twist!
Friday, September 8, 2023
SAVE THE DATE FOR SOMETHING GREAT!
Legal Aid’s Brush, Bottle and Barrel of the Bluegrass was a favorite in the legal community. After an 18-year run (and a global pandemic), we are spicing up our annual event. Don’t worry – it will still be casual, with lots of food, lots of fun, and LOTS of bourbon. More details to come over the spring, but we are moving the event to September!
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT…
Check out our first ever issue of Briefly Speaking, a quarterly publication highlighting pro bono service and opportunities.
Legal Aid Society attorney, Brian Fields, published an exceptional article in the February issue of the Louisville Bar Association’s Bar Briefs on Public Interest Student Loan Forgiveness.
