About

Clinic

Pro bono starts early! Today, we’re shouting out our awesome law student volunteers—including Theo Yim, a 2L at Georgia State University College of Law. Theo jumped in during his 1L fall and immediately became a core part of our clinic operations, assisting both clients and volunteer attorneys. Theo, we appreciate your dedication! 🎉 Law students: Find volunteer opportunities on Paladin, and head to our career page later this year to apply for summer internships.📚 #ProBonoWeek #CelebrateProBono #Volunteer #AtlantaLegalAid #AccessToJustice

Volunteers make justice possible. This June, our Pro Bono Unit's Estate Planning Project hosted three clinics that helped community members protect their families and plan for the future: * June 10 — Estate Planning Questionnaire Clinic with @chamberlainlawfirm * June 13 — Wills Clinic with @selfhelpcreditunion, Parker Hudson Ranier Dobbs, and other dedicated volunteers, hosted at @flippertempleame * June 30 — Estate Planning Questionnaire Clinic with @bermanfinkvanhorn Each clinic gave community members free access to legal guidance they might not otherwise be able to afford. None of this happens without volunteer attorneys who show up and give their time and expertise. Instagramrm, partner, and volunteer who made these clinics possible. We're grateful for you.
