Overview

The Law Foundation of Newfoundland and Labrador is a not-for-profit organization established in 1980 under the Law Society Act. The Foundation receives and uses the interest on lawyers’ and paralegal’s mixed trust account to support legal education, legal research, law reform, legal aid, legal referral services and law libraries in Newfoundland and Labrador. This is done through grants and scholarships, as well as contributions to the Newfoundland and Labrador Legal Aid Commission.
