Opportunities From: United Way of Central Jersey

A little of your time can make a big difference in the life of a very low income person or a struggling family. Simply by contributing your professional and legal skill to resolve a person’s critical legal need, you can make a real difference.  Our Pro Bono Program needs attorneys who will accept one, two or three cases per year on referral from our offices. The referrals are mostly in the areas of family law, consumer law or other areas of civil law. We will work with you to determine the area, or areas of the civil law in which you desire referrals. Once determined, our staff will only refer clients whose legal problem matches your preferred area of expertise. Our staff will prepare the case for referral and be available to provide any assistance needed.  As a participant in our Pro Bono Program, you will be covered by our malpractice insurance.  You will also be eligible for free CLE-approved training at Legal Services of New Jersey, and may be exempt from court appointed pro bono assignements.
