Any person who wants to receive free legal help from DVAP must apply for assistance and meet our eligibility guidelines.
With over 25% of Dallas County residents living in poverty, DVAP always needs more volunteers to assist those in need.
We reach out to local lawyers, law firms, corporations, and the community to seek critical funds to support DVAP’s efforts to provide civil legal aid to the poor in our community.
The Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program recruits, trains, and supports volunteer attorneys to provide free, civil legal help to low-income people in Dallas County, Texas. DVAP volunteers provide advice and full representation in a variety of cases, including family, housing, employment, landlord-tenant, real property, consumer, wills, expunctions and non-disclosures, probate, Chapter 7 bankruptcy, small business issues, veterans benefits, and more. DVAP cannot help with criminal cases, tickets, or fee-generating cases such as personal injury matters.
