This training will prepare volunteer attorneys to assist low-income,
unrepresented litigants in civil collection cases through VLP's Fair
Debt Collection Lawyer of the Day project at the Boston Municipal
Court. The training will cover civil procedure and practice at the BMC,
Limited Assistance Representation, as well as substantive areas of
consumer and fair debt collection law that you will need as a
volunteer. Fair debt collection cases are a great opportunity for
lawyers seeking courtroom experience.
