Why Cameron Volunteers With MVLS

Volunteering with MVLS helped me discover my passion for family law. Although the cases are often complex and emotionally charged, I’ve found the work incredibly rewarding.

Initially, I worked in transactional law and wasn’t sure if direct client interaction was for me. However, my early pro bono cases gave me the confidence to pursue this field. Because of that, I now fully embrace meaningful, client-centered work.

A Recent Case Cameron Is Proud Of

I’m currently handling an uncontested divorce. In this case, the client’s husband was deported shortly after their wedding. Despite being separated for years, both parties chose to end the marriage amicably.

Because our office is bilingual, we were able to support the client through every step. For example, we arranged a remote notary and are now preparing for the hearing. Overall, I’m proud of how we helped the client move forward with dignity.

Cameron’s Advice to New Volunteers

If you’re considering volunteering with MVLS, I encourage you to take that first step. Although it can feel intimidating, the support you’ll receive is incredible.

In addition, the network of experienced attorneys is always willing to guide you. You’ll grow your legal skills while truly making a difference in people’s lives.
