Every year, a major focus for Beth Andersen is to devote dozens of hours to pro bono work, giving back to the community and helping anyone who wants it to access legal assistance. One way she does this work is through volunteering at a variety of free legal clinics around Jefferson County. The clinics typically allow visitors to attend on a first come, first served basis and to receive 15 minutes of free legal advice on their divorce or family law issue. Please share this information with family and friends who could benefit.

*Please note: All clinics are virtual, over the phone or video conference. Please be sure to call and register as necessary.

Below is Beth’s clinic volunteer calendar for 2024, so far. Keep an eye on the ALPC Facebook page and the ALPC Volunteering the Community tab for additional dates and events as they are added.
