The Supreme Court of North Carolina has issued an emergency order that permits out-of-state lawyers to practice North Carolina law temporarily to provide assistance to indigent victims of Hurricane Florence. The order opens up opportunities for volunteer attorneys from across the country to provide pro bono support in North Carolina or remotely, by working with a legal services organization or through NC Free Legal Answers. A volunteer interest form and the required registration form for out-of-state attorneys are available from the North Carolina State Bar.
