Walking Beside Clients Through Challenges

Legal Advice Clinics

/// Roxanne Thorelli

Attorneys volunteering at legal advice clinics with our nonprofit partners are on the front lines of serving legal needs. Often, these brief consultations with an attorney can set clients on the right path, assure them of their rights or direct them to more resources.

Fredrikson attorneys donated more than 1,100 hours of time at legal advice clinics with partners like Mid MN Legal Aid, Volunteer Lawyers Network, LegalCORPS and Springboard for the Arts.

“ It’s great to have the dedicated monthly and bimonthly recurring commitment of Fredrikson & Byron attorneys with VLN phone advice clinics in several areas of law. The firm’s pro bono program is a wonderful partner in striving for equal access to justice.”

— Heidi Huber, VLN Volunteer Liaison & Data Manager

Fredrikson attorney Roxanne Thorelli volunteers regularly at the VLN Employment Law Clinic. In one evaluation, the client noted of VLN and Roxanne, “They were SO AMAZING helping me get my life back!”
