Law Day Activity at U.S. Air Force Base May 1, 2025

Nevada lawyers needed to volunteer for this community outreach activity

Members of the State Bar of Nevada are needed to volunteer for the Law Day event to be hosted by the U.S. Air Force on May 1, 2025. Creech Air Force Base is home to over 4,000 Airmen, civilians, and contractors. The community event will be held in the Owl’s Nest from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and is intended to support the Nellis and Creech Air Force Base communities.

During this community event, attorneys will be needed to answer general legal questions on a variety of topics including:

• Family law & divorce
• Adoption
• General education law, child welfare and special education (EMFP)
• Immigration & residency
• Landlord-tenant
• Wills & estate planning
• Elder law
• Consumer protection
• Debt collection & tax
• Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA)
• Servicemembers Civil Relief Act
• Veterans law, Veterans Disability (VA) Appeals

This event will not be like a typical “ask-a-lawyer” event. The military has specific restrictions for civilians participating in this type of event. Also, civilian attorneys may provide information on general legal matters; however, they just cannot provide legal advice to the point of creating an attorney/client relationship.

To prepare for the event on May 1, all volunteers must attend the pre-event training meeting (via Teams) on Thursday, April 17, 2025 (Noon to 1:00 p.m.).

Special thanks to volunteers from participating organizations including:

• Clark County Bar Association
• Clark County Law Library
• Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada
• Nevada Legal Services
• Nevada Attorney General’s Office of Military Legal Assistance
• Southern Nevada Senior Program
• UNLV Law School
