Law Society Public Service Overview

Central to the Mission of the International Law Society is for its members to bless the communities in which they live through service and example. Because of the personal religious beliefs of the Law Society members, Law Society members can use their professional skills, experience and leadership to truly enrich their communities with positive, religious-anchored professional service, whether by providing legal services to the unprotected and weak or through volunteer leadership to non-profit organizations and programs in their community.

Community service and community outreach are promoted as a meaningful activity for each Law Society Chapter. Members of the Law Society who render pro bono assistance best epitomize the virtues that the Law Society espouses. In a variety of ways, Law Society chapters and members are actively seeking to care for the poor, the needy, and the disadvantaged and have helped the plight of many who, without pro bono assistance, would stand injured and unprotected.

This section of the Web site highlights some current initiatives and provides ideas and other assistance for members and Chapter leaders seeking to make a meaningful public service contribution to their communities.
