| Purpose | MVLS is a private, non-profit legal services provider established in 1981 to help meet the need for civil legal services in Maryland. Our mission is to connect low-income Marylanders with volunteer lawyers and community partners to deliver free civil legal assistance because there should be justice for all, not just for those who can afford it. |
| Service | Our pro bono program serves Marylanders in Central Maryland, the Lower Shore, and Western Maryland. Our program has focused on pro bono assistance-matching one client and one volunteer attorney-and it remains a cornerstone of our work today. Our panel of more than 1,800 volunteers help clients with custody disputes, tax issues, child and adult guardianship, landlord/tenant conflicts, foreclosure defense, criminal record expungements, consumer cases and a broad range of other civil legal problems. |
| Eligibility | We'll confirm your income falls within our guidelines when you apply. Your gross household income (money earned before anything is taken out for taxes or other deductions) may not exceed 50% of the Maryland median income. |
| Ages Served | Serves all ages. |
| Area Served | Serves Maryland. |
