ATTORNEY VOLUNTEER

Description

The City of Chicago is interested in placing law graduates and licensed attorneys in our Volunteer Program. This program is designed to provide participants with a challenging unpaid volunteer experience that reflects the demands and rewards of public service. This program is for attorneys who have been hired by law firms, but their start dates have been deferred or they have been offered a "sabbatical" leave to provide pro bono work.

The participant will be assigned to a City department. They will be assigned a supervisor/mentor who will coordinate assignments. Together, the chosen participant and the supervisor will determine the start date, the hours to be worked and the date on which the program will end for the individual.

Participants in the program are not precluded from other employment, but must comply with all applicable Rules of Professional Responsibility to ensure that any and all conflicts are handled within those rules. If there is a potential conflict or question or concern regarding a particular conflict on a specific case, the applicable department head should be notified.



Graduation from an ABA accredited law school at the time of placement.

NOTE: To be considered for this program, please submit a copy of your engagement, deferment or offer letter from your firm. We will attempt to place applicants in their preferred department as indicated in your answer to the Screening Question in Taleo.



Evaluation: Your initial evaluation will be based on the information provided on the application form and documents submitted with the application. Applications must be submitted by the individual applicant. No second party applications will be accepted.



Residency Requirement: Residency is not required for these unpaid positions.

If you are disabled and require a reasonable accommodation to file your application, please contact the City of Chicago, Department of Human resources at 312-744-4976, TYY 312-744-5035. You will be required to provide information regarding your request.

ALL REFERENCES TO POLITICAL SPONSORSHIP OR RECOMMENDATION MUST BE OMITTED FROM ANY AND ALL APPLICATION MATERIALS SUBMITTED FOR CITY EMPLOYMENT.
