Covington, KY— The 38th Annual Northern Kentucky Volunteer Lawyers (NKVL) Pro Bono Awards Luncheon is Tuesday, October 4, 2016 at Summit Hills Country Club in Crestview Hills, Kentucky. Special recognitions for volunteer attorneys who provided exceptional service will be presented at this event.



Hosted by Legal Aid of the Bluegrass in partnership with the Northern Kentucky Bar Association and sponsored by Lawyers Mutual Insurance of Kentucky, the luncheon celebrates the meaningful service of volunteer lawyers helping those in need in our community. Visit http://conta.cc/2cm8kGE for your invitation to this event.



Northern Kentucky Volunteer Lawyers have provided assistance and representation to over one hundred people in the past year. This assistance varies from helping victims of domestic violence achieve safety, assisting veterans with procuring benefits, helping seniors complete Living Wills and POA’s, and helping people obtain a divorce. Volunteer attorneys are truly unsung heroes extending access to justice to the low-income and elderly populations of Northern Kentucky. LABG and NKVL perform services free of charge to clients.
