Volunteer Opportunities
“And Justice for all” is holding their annual Law Day 5k Run on April 27, 2024. The Paralegal Division Board and members who have signed up under our code will be participating in this event as a team. This is an amazing cause that raises awareness and funds for civil legal aid. You can find more information on this event here: https://andjusticeforall.org/ajfalawdayrun/. This is a family friendly event, and can be walked, run, or you can just come and cheer on your fellow paralegals. There are different classes for wheelchairs, strollers, and even your fur babies - there is fun for everyone! The cost of the event is $36/person. If this is something you would like to participate in, please contact us by April 17, 2024 at utahparalegaldivision@gmail.com and put "Law Day Run" in the subject line. We will get back to you with our sign-up code. Every participant that pays a fee will receive an “and Justice for all” 5k Run t-shirt that may be worn the day of the event. Shirt sizes will be asked for when you sign up under our code.
Legal Aid Society of Salt Lake is looking for paralegal volunteers:
The Legal Aid Society of Salt Lake is always looking for paralegals to volunteer to help in their events to give patrons information about the legal process and help access court forms on the Court’s website. This is a wonderful opportunity for paralegals to hone their skills, or develop new skills, in family law. Paralegals can volunteer at Legal Aid Society of Salt Lake Family Law Clinics at the Matheson and West Jordan courthouses. At these clinics, paralegals do NOT provide legal
advice, but can provide information about the legal process, access to legal forms (on the Court’s website and hard copies) and assist in scheduling hearings with the Court Clerk.
Third District Court’s “Document Preparation Day”, occurs on the 4th Tuesday of every month at 9:00 a.m. with Commissioner Sagers at the Matheson Courthouse. This event is for individuals whose cases are agreed upon, but who need assistance in drafting Findings of Facts and Conclusions of Law and final Orders or Decrees.
Utah Legal Services is looking for paralegal volunteers:
Utah Legal Services is always looking for paralegals to volunteer to help in their events during the evenings and on the weekends. Utah Legal Services needs paralegal help with client paperwork, gathering medical records and other documentation, and at an expungement clinic this year.

Volunteers always welcome! We are always looking for volunteers to help us out in our committees. The Education Committee oversees our CLE events; the Community Service Committee organizes and coordinates our community service events, and our Publications/Marketing Committee distributes our newsletters and Bar Journal Articles. If you are looking for a way to be more hands-on involved in the division, participating on a committee is an excellent way to lend your support. For more information on any of these committees, and how to get involved, please email us at utahparalegaldivision@gmail.com and put “Committee Volunteer” in the subject line. One of our Board Members will reach out to you to provide additional information. Thank you for your interest in our division; we appreciate all our member participation in making our division great!
