The commitment you would make is limited - twice a month, lasting about one semester - and the volunteer supervisor could in fact be a partnership or team of two or three lawyers working together with the students (that way there will be consistency and coverage if one is in trial, etc.) Volunteers average about 50 hours work total spread out over those months. Many of your colleagues have volunteered for the Project, so ask them about their experience.
As a member of the Defense Bar, you have the knowledge and experience to make a difference in achieving justice and providing legal assistance for an innocently or wrongfully convicted person. You can mentor and teach law students at the same time for a minimal commitment. Please volunteer for this rich and rewarding experience of supervising students in evaluating a case.
