Request for Expressions of Interest (EOI) for Provision of Legal Services for Reporters Shield
The Vance Center and Reporters Shield are actively seeking lawyers and/or law firms with the qualifications, skills, and experience to provide legal services to clients. Reporters Shield is a membership program that defends investigative and other public interest reporting organizations worldwide from legal threats and claims meant to silence critical voices. Reporters Shield helps reduce the risk of lawsuits through training and funds legal assistance to fight lawsuits meant to intimidate and financially burden reporters (such as “strategic lawsuits against public participation,” or SLAPPs).
Through this Request for Expressions of Interest, the Vance Center and Reporters Shield invite eligible lawyers to indicate their interest in providing these services.
