Legal content volunteers

At ILAO, we believe in opening opportunities for justice, and Legal Content Volunteers (LCVs) are essential to helping us meet that mission. ILAO delivers easy-to-understand legal information and assistance to those who can't afford a lawyer. Our website contains over 1,700 pages of legal content, and our resources are translated into Spanish. To maintain these resources, ILAO relies on LCVs to help review our content for legal accuracy.
