The Allegheny County Bar Association will be holding the 26th annual KD & You and the Law telethon on Tuesday, April 27, 2010 from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. at KDKA-TV studios in Gateway Center in Pittsburgh.

Volunteers will provide free assistance to callers with legal questions. Whether you are a veteran volunteer of this event or a newcomer, your help is needed.

Attorneys in all areas of the law are needed, but those specializing in family law, elder law, bankruptcy, real estate, and employment are especially needed due to a high volume of calls in those areas.

Volunteers are still needed for the following shifts: 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., 1 p.m. to 3 p.m., 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., and 5 p.m. to 7 p.m.

To volunteer, contact Joanna Taylor at jtaylor@acba.org or 412-402-6604 and let her know which two-hour shift you can work and the areas in which you feel most comfortable receiving calls.
