Volunteer In Profile

Jennifer Wilkie is one of Grande Prairie's many dedicated Legal Clinic Volunteers. She has provided many hours of pro bono advice to clients, has spent personal time researching cases out of her area of practice and has provided pro bono services for clients that had no other options and really needed the help. She is wonderful for returning impromptu calls from GPLG clients over the phone, coming into to clinic on short notice, and volunteering to help out as often as she can.
