The Greater Dayton Volunteer Lawyers Project was founded in 1988 serving the Greater Miami Valley area in pro bono legal services for over 25 years. The VLP handles over 1,000 cases every year. The VLP is located at the Dayton Bar Association who it is supported by, and works directly with the Legal Aid of Western Ohio by registering private attorneys to provide pro bono work.
 
Volunteers of the VLP offer pro bono cases in civil suits to low-income citizens in the Western Ohio area. The VLP connects legal professionals with the opportunity to volunteer their services, network with other seasoned lawyers in the area as mentors, and be altruistic to those in the community.
 
Our mission and vision provides innovative opportunities for attorneys to perform pro bono civil legal services to benefit persons with limited financial resources. When an attorney or other legal professional desires to fulfill his or her personal or professional calling or duty to contribute service to others, then VLP provides an effective bridge between that drive to serve and individuals with limited economic resources, as well as other nonprofits with similar missions, needing help for civil legal issues.

To find out more about our pro bono opportunities and the training, mentoring and other benefits we provide to volunteer attorneys, please see our website, http://www.gdvlp.org/.
