How it Works

Application Process

Apply on-line or download an application click here. Attorneys must be admitted to practice in Maryland and be a member of the bar in good standing. If you have questions or need assistance, send an e-mail to info@mvlslaw.org.

Case Screening

Before making referrals we screen clients for income eligibility and whether the case fits within the kinds of matters we handle. We will match your interests with our clients’ needs. We will call you first to confirm your availability to accept a case. You can let us know the types of cases you want to accept.
