 Dial-A-Lawyer Day Volunteers Field 420 Calls

BarTalk June 2002
Volume 14, Number 3

The Dial-A-Lawyer Day enables people throughout BC to consult with a lawyer about a legal problem for 10 minutes, for free. This year volunteers fielded 420 calls, including 120 Chinese-language calls, courtesy of the CBABC’s partnership with SUCCESS, a Vancouver agency working within the Chinese-Canadian community. Thanks to the volunteers (see sidebar) who helped make this event a huge success. Thanks also to the following event sponsors: Corporate Express; Orca Bay Sports & Entertainment; Saskatchewan Legal Education Society; and The Vancouver Sun.
