While many attorneys envision pro bono matters in terms of lengthy litigation cases or assisting nonprofits with various legal matters such as organizational set-up, negotiating a lease and advising the board of directors, there are many matters that can be handled by all attorneys — at all experience levels.
These matters have shorter time commitments, yet provide immediate impact to both the clients and volunteers. This type of pro bono typically is called a clinical model. Your firm, company, governmental office or nonprofit can consider it as a cornerstone to your pro bono program, even if you are a team of one and do not have a formal program.
