What it’s like to work here

Laura Turner, Director of Development and Communications

“One of my favorite things about working at Open Door Legal is that we are truly encouraged to bring our whole selves to work–funny, passionate, tired, honest. This makes space for meaningful relationships among the staff, and a deep sense of joy as we work together in the pursuit of justice.”

Fabiano Valerio, Senior Immigration Attorney

“My experience working at ODL has been positive from the start. I am privileged to be part of a team of incredible individuals working diligently to provide access to justice to vulnerable populations in San Francisco.”

Whitney Tu, Director of Talent and Culture

“I’ve always wanted to work in an office where people not only whole-heartedly believed in the mission, but in one another. That is true at ODL. There is a very clear-eyed, shared view of the future: universal access to legal services. Each of us is a better person because of our work together.”
