ways to get involved


Legal Prep has a strong tradition of engaging members of the community with Legal Prep students.  Whether you are an individual or a member of a Chicago-area business or law firm please see some of the opportunities below. 

For more information on any of these programs, contact Laura Miller at lmiller@legalprep.org.

​

join our Law programs- Negotiations,
​Mock Trial, and Mapping the Future

Negotiations and Mock Trial pair Legal Prep students with an attorney or law student mentor. Over the course of the school year long program, students and volunteers will work through a series of structured lessons and activities which will provide students with a basic understanding of legal reasoning skills as well as unparalleled experiences and exposures to legal professionals. Firms provide sponsorship, attorneys, and are encouraged to join with a client or other partner in its Advisory adoption, providing a unique opportunity to collaborate with colleagues and the community.
