Pro Bono Representation
Pro bono representation refers to legal services provided by lawyers for free or at a reduced cost to individuals or organizations who cannot afford to pay. This practice is rooted in the legal profession's commitment to ensuring access to justice for all, regardless of financial status. Pro bono work can cover various legal matters, including immigration, family law, and civil rights. Lawyers often take on pro bono cases to contribute to their communities, support important causes, or fulfill professional obligations to provide a certain number of hours of free legal service.
