In collaboration with the Chinese Chamber of Commerce of New York, we will be providing free 30-minute sessions to limited English proficient (LEP) clients who speak Cantonese, Mandarin, and/or Korean. Please sign up to volunteer (as attorney, language interpreter and/or administrative help) at these pro bono clinics. Spaces are limited.

To sign up, please fill out - https://airtable.com/shr1fbjStq7JLSaWY

As always, we are seeking both volunteer attorneys and language interpreters.

Attorney volunteers do not need to be specialists or have expertise in a specific area of law, but should have experience in client intake and consultation. Attorney volunteers will only be rendering legal information, and will not take on any legal representation. Interpreter volunteers should be fluent in English and at least one of the following languages: Cantonese Chinese, Mandarin Chinese, Korean, or other Asian languages or dialects. All volunteers must be AABANY members for professional liability coverage purposes. Volunteers may sign up at https://www.aabany.org/page/J2 to become an AABANY member.

You can also sign up as an On-Call Legal Counselor. As an On-Call Legal Counselor, you do not need to attend the full session or speak with clients. The volunteer attorneys may call or text you during this time to ask for your expert opinion or advice.
