Law Day Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteers Needed for Law Day!

Month of April-Lawyer Outreach

Middle and High Schools are invited to participate in this valuable Law Day activity.  An attorney is assigned to a school to come in to speak to students on the subjects of Law Day, law in gernal, careers in law, and/or on subjects agreed upon between the teacher and attorney.  Date and time is arranged at mutual convenience between attorney and teacher.  Times usually are Friday afternoon for 1 to 1.5 hours. 

Saturday, April 28-"Ask a Lawyer" at the Bar Center:

Volunteers for the 2nd shift (10:45-12:30) and 3rd shift (12:30-2:00) This is a time the community calls in for free legal advice.

Friday, May 4-Mock Trial Presentations at the Courthouse

There are 12 teams of students (grades 6-12) coming to the courthouse to present a scripted trial to our volunteer judge.  This is a great experience for both student and attorney. 


If you would like to volunteer for any of these dates or have any questions please contact Liz Whitney.
