Request for Volunteers – Translations for Law of the Land Project

A few months ago, the AABA undertook to provide Vietnamese translations of legal topics to the Texas Young Lawyers Association for their Law of the Land Project. We had a good response from volunteers, but several of our topics remain in need of translation, and our deadline to deliver the translated documents for publication is fast approaching. Thus, we are again asking for volunteers to provide translations. We urgently need your help to complete this project and make it a success.

We have a number of topics still awaiting at least partial translation, including 1) Landlord/Tenant; 2) Wills & Estate Planning; 3) Voting Rights; 4) Jury Duty; and 5) Freedom of Safe Passage.

Please don’t hesitate. Volunteer today and help to serve our community through this very worthwhile project. If you have questions, or to volunteer, please respond to Lynn Kramer at lkramer[@]munsch.com or contact her secretary Felicia at 713…222-4029.
