Chicago Volunteer Legal Services (CVLS) is a mid-sized nonprofit in the legal services sector based in Chicago, Illinois. With more than 59 years of experience, CVLS coordinates a large network of volunteer attorneys to provide civil pro bono representation for the poor and working poor in the Chicago area. The organization relies on volunteers to deliver civil legal aid and to expand access to essential legal services for economically disadvantaged residents. CVLS's mission is to coordinate, support and promote voluntary pro bono legal representation for the Chicago area's low-income population. In 2026, CVLS partnered with Beermann Law Group to advance its pro bono initiatives, including the Beermann Family Law Clinic established in collaboration with CVLS.
