Unique Bucks County program!

The Bucks County Courts' unique program provides representation to both plaintiffs and defendants if they do not already have representation.

New volunteers can observe PFA Day and learn from staff and current volunteers before committing to provide representation. You do NOT need to be a family law attorney to participate.

Hearings are at Bucks County Justice Center, Doylestown.
