Volunteer of the Month
Every month Philadelphia VIP will choose an attorney that has captured the heart of pro bono service. Philadelphia VIP seeks to recognize attorneys who have gone above and beyond to help our clients resolve their legal matters.
Philadelphia VIP understands the everyday demands and time constraints that our volunteer attorneys face. We value all volunteers and recognize with this honor those who handle multiple VIP cases, dedicate numerous hours to complex matters and take on cases outside of their general practice area. Philadelphia VIP Volunteers of the Month serve our clients with compassion and offer hope to those without. Philadelphia VIP is proud to recognize volunteers who are truly helping achieve access to justice for all.
