Volunteer with Us
At Legal Help Centre, our mission is to provide legal support and social service referrals for those in need, and we couldn’t do it without the dedication and expertise of our incredible volunteers. Whether you’re an experienced lawyer or someone looking to contribute administratively, there’s a place for you in our community.
Volunteer Lawyers
Our team of volunteer lawyers plays a crucial role in advancing our mission. By offering their legal expertise, they help us provide essential services to our clients, ensuring they receive the support they deserve. Additionally, our volunteer lawyers mentor students, guiding the next generation of legal professionals and fostering a spirit of learning and growth. If you’re a lawyer passionate about making a difference, we invite you to join us and contribute your skills.
Administrative Volunteers
We also welcome administrative volunteers who support our operations. From managing client intake, helping maintaining records to supporting special projects, our administrative volunteers help ensure that our organization runs smoothly and efficiently. Your efforts will directly impact our ability to serve our clients and fulfill our mission.
Volunteer Testimonials:
- “I really appreciate the opportunity to help the students with developing their own practical skills. I also love the opportunity to have a direct effect on peoples’ legal issues when they come in for help.” – Gerrit, Volunteer Lawyer
- “I believe mentorship builds better lawyers. I get to pass on my years of knowledge and experience as an advisor and coach, and I find it gives the students and young lawyers confidence and they feel more capable in giving advice to their clients. It has been a very satisfying experience for me and one I will continue to embrace for years to come.” -Norm, Volunteer Lawyer (retired)
