The Brooklyn Volunteer Lawyers Project provides free civil legal services to low-income Brooklyn residents. The Volunteer Lawyers Project, like other legal service agencies, uses income guidelines to determine who is eligible for free help. The guidelines are based on a percentage of the federal poverty level. The VLP can assist residents of Brooklyn living at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines.

Mission Statement: The mission of the Brooklyn Bar Association Volunteer Lawyers Project (VLP), an independent 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization, is to ensure that the legal system is accessible to those who, because of special needs or the overwhelming burdens of poverty, would not otherwise have their rights protected or their voices heard.
