Volunteer Lawyers Network is a mid-sized nonprofit based in Minneapolis, Minnesota, that connects Minnesotans experiencing poverty with private attorneys on a no-cost basis. As a 501(c)(3) organization, it coordinates pro bono engagements that include legal clinics, document drafting, and representation in court to help protect clients' rights and property. The network also supports its volunteers by providing insurance, recruiting and training new volunteers, and educating law students and lawyers on serving low-income clients. It advocates for policy changes to improve access to justice and collaborates with partners across immigrant, refugee, Indigenous, faith, and LGBTQ+ communities, as well as programs serving former offenders, survivors of domestic and sexual violence, people experiencing homelessness, and youth. Recent activity includes a 2020 partnership with LegalCORPS to offer free legal assistance to businesses and nonprofits damaged in the wake of civil unrest.
