ORGANIZATION: Illinois Legal Aid Online

  • 265 people are interested
ILAO

Illinois Legal Aid Online (ILAO) puts the law within reach for all. ILAO streamlines the delivery of free and pro bono legal services to lower-income Illinois residents, and delivers easy-to-understand legal information and assistance to those who can't afford a lawyer.

We need Illinois attorneys to help us review and revise our content to ensure legal accuracy. Volunteers can work remotely, making this a great opportunity for busy professionals who want to volunteer on their own schedules. Volunteers can select a content review project in their area of substantive expertise, then our Legal Content Manager will provide ongoing support throughout the project. Enjoy the flexibility that comes along with this remote volunteer opportunity while helping individuals who can’t afford a lawyer.

To get started, please complete our Legal Content Volunteer Sign-Up .
