Pro Bono Volunteer Lawyers Program

What is the Pro Bono Volunteer Lawyers Program?

The Pro Bono Volunteer Lawyers Program will try to match a client in need with an attorney who is willing to help at no cost. The volunteer lawyer will offer advice, legal services and representation to people who qualify.

Who is qualified to receive help?

Qualification for the program is based on need and the kind of legal problem that you have. The lawyers in this program are only able to help with:

• Hardship bankruptcy
• Guardianship of adults or children
• Assistance for nonprofit corporations
• Wills and power of attorney for deploying military personnel
• Wills and probate for those with limited assets

How do I apply?

Complete and print the Application Form (PDF 128K). Information can be typed in, but you will not be able to save the form. Move to each part of the form by using the tab key. Mail the completed form to the address on the application.

What happens next?

Once your application is received, you will be contacted by phone. The program coordinator will talk with you about your circumstances and your legal needs. If you qualify, a volunteer lawyer will be assigned to help you and will contact you soon.

This program is brand new, so the number of volunteers may be limited. The program may not be able to help everyone who applies.

What if I don’t qualify?

If your case involves threats of danger or violence to you or your children, contact: Wyoming Coalition Against Domestic Violence & Sexual Assault
