Law Firm Pro Bono Policies

The Ohio Legal Assistance Foundation can put you in touch with law firms from around the state that have well-established and highly effective pro bono policies. The pro bono coordinators at these offices can advise attorneys who are looking to formulate pro bono strategies and/or boost pro bono participation at their firms. Guidance is also available for lawyers whose firms are struggling with some of the ethical uncertainties that can arise in pro bono contexts (e.g. conflicts of interest). Please contact us by phone (1-800-877-9772) or by e-mail for more information.

Additionally, the Pro Bono Institute at Georgetown University Law Center provides support, guidance, training, resources, and inspiration to major law firms, in-house corporate legal departments, and public interest organizations seeking to expand and enhance access to justice for low-income persons.

This information is geared towards attorneys and other professionals looking for volunteer opportunities. If you are seeking an attorney for assistance, you need to call, toll-free, 1-866-LAW-OHIO from your home county to be automatically forwarded to your local legal aid office or visit the Find Ohio Legal Help for a directory of legal service providers in your community.
