Legal Assistance for Maryland Veterans
The Veterans Affairs and Military Law Committee (VAMLC) of the Maryland State Bar Association has generously agreed to offer “pro bono” (free) legal assistance to veterans when possible.

Eligibility Criteria
You are a military veteran who lives in the state of Maryland
You are in urgent need of legal assistance and cannot afford a lawyer

Instructions
If you meet the eligibility criteria, send an email to: vetlegal.assistance@maryland.gov

The email should include the following:
1. A brief description (one paragraph) of your situation
2. Why you urgently need legal assistance
3. Why you cannot afford it
4. Your name, number of years served on active duty, type/year of discharge, and the best phone number to reach you

Once the email is screened at the Maryland Department of Veterans Affairs (MDVA), it will be forwarded to the designated representative from the Veterans Affairs and Military Law Committee (VAMLC). The designated representative from the VAMLC will send the email out to all member lawyers of the VAMLC. If any of the member lawyers are interested in taking the case “pro bono,” he/she will contact the veteran directly for further discussion
