Free Consultations, Classes and Workshops Offered in Collaboration With
More Than 40 Legal and Public Service Organizations at LA Law Library.

Los Angeles, September 4, 2015 – As part of its annual Pro Bono Week celebration held October 24th to 30th, LA Law Library brings together more than 40 legal and public service organizations to provide free public assistance in one place.

The week will start off with the third annual Public Legal Services Fair on Saturday, October 24th providing direct access to legal and public service organizations. Other services offered will include free child identification kits and low cost flu shots.

LA Law Library’s calendar for Pro Bono Week is packed with free workshops, information sessions and services for the public including free legal consultations. Many topics are covered; anyone with questions such as how to obtain citizenship, how to keep kids out of foster care, how to resolve a landlord tenant dispute or how to do their own legal research, can get free help from the Library and its many legal service partners. The week also offers nine free continuing legal education classes for lawyers and members of the legal community who want to learn more about volunteer public service opportunities. It’s all part of the national celebration of Pro Bono Week.
