Philadelphia VIP can help your small business or nonprofit through two different service models.
Small businesses and nonprofits seeking help with a specific legal need can apply to VIP for full, no-cost representation by a volunteer attorney.
Common issues handled by our volunteers include incorporation, tax-exempt status, contract drafting, trademark filing, policy revision, zoning permits, and more.
VIP offers Philadelphia’s small businesses and nonprofits free consultations either in-person or virtually.
Clients will use this one-hour consultation to address critical legal questions in order for volunteer attorneys to provide a personalized assessment.
After the initial consultation, eligible small businesses and nonprofits may receive ongoing legal assistance with the legal need(s) identified and discussed in the conversation.
