Each year hundreds of attorneys, law students, college students, and other professional and community volunteers assist LAF in solving the legal problems of thousands of Cook County’s most vulnerable residents. Some people volunteer for only an hour or two a month; others are full time.  Volunteers do everything from interpreting and translating to client interviews to factual investigations to legal research to handling cases in court and before administrative agencies.  Whatever they do, LAF volunteers make a significant difference in people’s lives.


Other Volunteer Opportunities
There are a number of different areas at LAF that always need volunteer help: social work consultation, computer training, medical expertise, desktop publishing/design, research for grant proposals, translation/interpretation, staff training on particular topics (legal, managerial, organizational), donations of furniture/artwork, etc. If your expertise doesn’t fit into one of these areas, we would still like to hear from you.  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
