The Association for Chinese Canadian Lawyers (ACCLO) and Federation of Asian Canadian Lawyers (FACL) are seeking to partner with Pro Bono Law Ontario (PBLO) to host periodic summary advice clinics at PBLO’s court-based help centres known as Law Help Ontario (LHO).
Each year, LHO serves thousands of low-income, self-represented litigants with civil, non-family matters in the Superior Court of Justice and Small Claims Court. Apparently, the need for assistance among those in the Chinese community is significant.
Will you participate in this project as a volunteer lawyer?
Interested lawyers should be prepared to spend one full day providing brief summary advice at an LHO centre in Toronto, TBA.
Volunteers at the Superior Court centre should be full-time civil litigators.
Please indicate your interest in this project by emailing Carol at csuen@bcbarristers.com. Thank you in advance for your support.
