Serving the Miami Valley of Ohio

The GDVLP is a pro bono program created in 1988. We are located at the Dayton Bar Association and are supported by Legal Aid of Western Ohio (LAWO). Since our creation, our lawyers have proudly provided counsel to almost 22,000 cases consisting of over 87,000 hours. We serve as a complement to Legal Aid by registering private attorneys to provide pro bono civil legal services in civil case areas.  The VLP does no criminal work.

If you are not familiar with VLP and your first contact with us is online, we would be pleased to help you.  If you are a member of the Legal community please click on the Attorney Registration button if you wish to sign up to help.

If you are looking for legal help, you must contact http://www.legalaidline.org/ and apply for assistance.  Legal Aid Line can also be reached at 1-888-534-1432.  Legal Aid Line does all intakes for VLP.
