Philadelphia VIP is a nonprofit that recruits and supports volunteer attorneys to represent low-income Philadelphians who face critical legal issues but cannot afford a lawyer.
Our permanent staff team consists of attorneys, case managers, and other professionals and is highly collaborative, creative, and passionate about our leveraging model of service. VIP’s team also includes law student interns and attorney fellows.
Focusing on a variety of legal issues, Pro Bono Case Managers have primary responsibility for preparing cases for placement with volunteer attorneys, matching clients with volunteers, and providing logistical support to attorneys and clients throughout the life of the case.
