The Associates Advisory Board, created in August 2005, is an outgrowth of several years of successful Associates Campaigns for Legal Aid. Members of the Associates Advisory Board, who represent over 20 of LA's major law firms, support LAFLA by enhancing awareness of the organization and its mission, striving to increase pro bono involvement, and raising operating funds.
Associates Advisory Board members are the young leaders of the local legal community and LAFLA welcomes their energy and enthusiasm to help us expand our services to low-income communities.
