THE LEGAL BRIEF
VOLUME 40, ISSUE 4
Thurston County Volunteer Legal Services
Post Pandemic Planning: Like most organizations, we are looking to resume some aspect of “ normalcy ” post - pandemic. We will be increasing the number of clinics and give both attorneys and clientele the choice on whether to attend in person or virtually. About half of the volunteer attorneys at SafePlace already advise clients using video conferencing from the comfort of their homes! The other half are excited to be back interacting with both other attorneys and their clients.
Because we don ’ t have enough volunteer attorneys, it ’ s taking three months to get an appointment at our family law legal advice clinics. Please consider sharing your talents and helping us get caught up! If you would like to volunteer at a legal advice clinic, please contact Ryan at 360 - 915 - 7488 or coordinator@tcvls.org. We are planning an orientation and training in October!
We need you!

Do you know an attorney looking for a new opportunity? TCVLS has received a 3 - year grant from the Office of Civil Legal Aid to create a team of attorneys who can provide legal aid to survivors of domestic violence who cannot afford to hire an attorney. We have enough funding to hire three attorneys. Please direct anyone who might be interested to Rachael at 360 - 515 - 5381 or director@tcvls.org.
