Luzerne County Pro Bono

Several attorneys have already volunteered. Thank you! Please like and share our page to get the word out about Luzerne County Pro Bono. If you have any questions, are looking for an attorney or to volunteer, message us or email us at [email protected].

We need you! The W-BLLA’s Pro Bono Committee is looking for attorneys to volunteer in advance of the anticipated surge in cases in the wake of the COVID-19 epidemic and its economic fallout. The Committee’s initial focus is on landlord-tenant cases, but we are also looking for attorneys for protection from abuse (PFA) cases (Plaintiff and Defendant), custody matters (limited representation only), and child support contempt hearings. In addition to seeking volunteer attorneys..., we are also looking for volunteer mentors who can be available to answer questions for attorneys who may have never handled a case in one of these areas. If you are interested in volunteering, please email [email protected] indicating which practice areas you are interested in and whether you want to volunteer to take a case or serve as a mentor. By volunteering to take a case, you would only be committing to handling one hearing subject to your availability. Please also contact us if you are interested in joining the Pro Bono Committee or volunteering in any other practice area. Lastly, you can check out the Pro Bono Committee’s new website: Luzerne County Pro Bono. https://luzernecountybar.com/site/pro-bono/ Only indigent individuals meeting the federal poverty guidelines, North Penn Legal Services’ income requirements, or certified In Forma Pauperis by the Court, will be referred through the Luzerne County Pro Bono program.
