YOUR IMPACT: OUR CLIENTS
The WBF provides legal assistance to low-income individuals with critical legal needs. Each day, domestic abuse survivors face an overwhelming and complex legal system. Having an attorney at their side when facing challenging circumstances can make all the difference. Our WBF-trained volunteer attorneys ensures that these clients are not alone. One client shares the difference her WBF-trained attorney made in her life.
"I feel immensely blessed to work with my pro-bono attorney. The day she took my case, I felt I was no longer alone in the struggle...With immense gratitude, I appreciate this organization for helping me so much."
