…that since its establishment in 1981, WAMS has provided pro bono mediation services to clients represented by pro bono attorneys? Over the years, WAMS mediators have volunteered their time to resolve cases involving churches and other non-profit organizations, indigent clients with civil rights claims, criminal plea bargains with victim compensation and small business disputes – just to name a few. WAMS mediators also mediate on a pro bono basis for clients referred through the Volunteer Attorneys for Persons with Aids (VAPWA) and Neighborhood Legal Clinics (NLC) programs.
