LevittQuinn is currently seeking volunteers to provide office support in our Westlake/Echo Park office. Office volunteers will help the legal assistants with administrative support including data entry and filing projects, copying, scanning, and general office upkeep. We seek a minimum volunteer commitment of eight hours per week for a minimum of three months, although we prefer longer term commitments.

Levitt and Quinn Family Law Center
How you help

Forty years ago, volunteers with a passion for and commitment to public service founded LevittQuinn Family Law Center. Today our organization has grown to include a professional staff of experts in a variety of family law practice areas. Volunteers are still an important part of our mission to ensure stability for children and their families in the face of legal difficulties.
About us

LevittQuinn’s attorneys practice in key areas of family law including adoption, child support or spouse support, custody, visitation, domestic violence, grandparent visitation, guardianship, marital dissolution and paternity. Each year we receive thousands of inquires, give responsive services to more than 1,900 families, and impact the lives of over 2,800 children. Our attorneys make hundreds of court appearances on behalf of poor and modest means families throughout the Los Angeles County Superior Court system, the largest trial court in the nation. We prioritize cases where a critical right is at risk.
