Chelan Douglas County Volunteer Attorney Services is proud to offer a full day of learning for members of the bar and interested community members. The CLE Blitz provides attorneys with a local opportunity to obtain necessary CLE credits, receive the latest legal updates and connect with colleagues. The CLE Blitz also serves as annual fundraiser for Volunteer Attorney Services (VAS).
VAS facilitates free legal services for individuals and families from poverty by enlisting help of lawyers who are willing to volunteer their time on a pro bono. We are so fortunate for the incredible generosity of our legal community, donating over 600 hours each year to ensure that poverty is not a barrier to justice.
Thank you for joining us and for your support for civil legal aid!
