Ways To Support
Your support helps us provide free legal services to those who need it most—whether through donations, pro bono work, volunteer work, or community partnerships, every contribution makes a difference.
What Are The Benefits of Volunteering?
You will experience the personal reward of offering free attorney services and helping individuals in need. You will also receive:
- Malpractice Coverage through Legal Aid Society of Mid-New York, Inc.
- Continuing Legal Education Credit
- Pro Bono recognition at the local and state levels
- Forms and Research
- Training
- Ongoing support from dedicated pro bono staff
- Attorney Emeritus: Senior volunteers may also qualify for "Attorney Emeritus" status through the New York State Bar Association
Take Advantage of our Reverse Referral Program! If you would like to assist one of your low-income clients pro bono through Legal Aid, we can do a phone intake and immediately tell you if they qualify. You will receive the same benefits as with a traditional referral.
