"During times of crisis, Houston lawyers have always stepped up," says HBA President Bill Kroger in a new video message to members on the crucial need for pro bono legal services in our city. Much of the economic impact of COVID-19 will be felt in 2021. Through Houston Volunteer Lawyers, you can make 2021 a year of recovery and lift up those who lost so much during the pandemic.

The greatest need of HVL's clients is pro bono representation in eviction and family law cases. Volunteers handling pro bono cases will be assigned an HVL staff attorney mentor who will help with developing case strategy and provide sample forms and templates. If you are interested in volunteering, please call (713) 275-0140 or email probono@hvlp.org.
