On Saturday, April 16, 2011, the BC Branch of the Canadian Bar Association held its province-wide "Dial-A-Lawyer" event as part of Law Week. Residents in British Columbia were invited to call and speak with a lawyer for up to 15 minutes at no cost.
In 2011, volunteer lawyers assisted 373 people in five different areas of law including: family, tort/MVA, immigration, criminal, and wills and estates.
We wish to thank the many lawyers who generously volunteer their time for this event.
