Job Description

Maryland Legal Aid (MLA) provides life-changing civil legal assistance to eligible residents in every part of the State. Since 1911, MLA has provided high-quality legal services to low-income, and marginalized individuals and communities–helping them remedy their civil legal issues and become empowered to overcome challenges, achieve stability and independence, and an overall better life.

MLA is dedicated to preserving the basic human needs and basic human rights of clients, particularly as they navigate the justice system. MLA staff, pro bono attorneys, community partners, and general supporters all play important roles in ensuring that the legal playing field is leveled so that those most in need achieve equal access to justice. It is because of this diverse support that MLA is able to be a voice to tens of thousands of economically disadvantaged and vulnerable Marylanders every year.

Under the supervision of the Chief Attorney, the volunteer attorney handles all functions related to case work from initial intake through representation of clients before all relevant agencies, courts, etc. Volunteer attorneys may be expected to work with other attorneys, paralegals and students on cases or projects. Maintain case files in accordance with Maryland Legal Aid standards.

Opportunities available in Intake Services, Domestic Law, Administrative Law, Housing/Consumer Law and Child Advocacy.

Please submit a resume and cover letter.
