Our Family Law Project assists individuals, families with children or families with domestic violence in matters including marital dissolutions, child custody, child support, restraining orders, guardianships, conservatorships, wills, powers of attorney and probate litigation. This is a full-scope project in which the volunteer can take the case from start to finish. Depending on the circumstances of each case, cases can last for weeks, months or even years. Before you volunteer with this project, we ask that you attend this free MCLE training session.

This training will be given by JDC's Supervising Attorneys who will go over the volunteer procedures as well as the forms for completing a simple divorce. There is an online substantive portion that must be viewed before the in-person training. The link to the online training will be emailed to you once you register. If you have any questions or concerns, please email probono@sfbar.org or by phone at 415-782-8996.
