About Us

The UMKC-LAWMO Self-Help Law Clinic at the Leon E. Bloch Law Library provides limited scope representation services to individuals seeking legal assistance. Through its partnership with Legal Aid of Western Missouri’s Volunteer Attorney Project, the clinic has the resources to assist the general public with an array of legal issues.

Volunteer with Us

The clinic could not provide high quality services without the involvement of our legal community.  If you are a Missouri licensed attorney interested in providing limited representation on a pro bono basis, please join us!  Attorneys enroll through Legal Aid’s Volunteer Attorney Project (VAP) and receive all of its benefits.  Clinic attorneys choose how often and how many hours to volunteer.  To join, click here to register and a VAP staff member will contact you with more information.  Be sure to mention the Self-Help Law Clinic in the comments section of the registration form!
