We wish the @MDFAWL community a Happy Halloween! A special thank you to our Pro Bono Committee and all volunteers for bringing joy this past weekend to women and children living in a local domestic violence shelter.
@MDFAWL thinks #probonoweek should be every week! We celebrate all of our members and fellow lawyers who dedicate their time to doing pro bono work!!
We encourage all of our members to volunteer their time for Floridians who need their help!!IMPORTANT: Florida Lawyers STILL Needed To Volunteer For YLD’s FEMA 1-800 hotline
Florida lawyers, we still need your assistance in the aftermath of #HurricaneMichael.
Residents of the Gulf Coast of Florida have lost everything and don't know where to turn.
And they need our help.
The Florida Bar Young Lawyers Division, working in conjunction with the ABA Young Lawyers Division, is asking for volunteers to assist by returning calls placed to the YLD’s FEMA Federal Emergency Management Agency 1-800 hotline or at FEMA centers.
Volunteers provide basic legal services for low-income individuals in non-fee generating cases. The most pressing need is for volunteers to return calls. To volunteer, complete this form (yldbog.formstack.com/forms/2018_disaster_legal_services_volunteer_) and review the FEMA Disaster Assistance Manual for Legal Services Advocates (bit.ly/2gL549X).
The types of legal questions most frequently asked will involve landlord/tenant and other housing problems, consumer protection matters, and home repair contracts.
