Pro-Bono Work
Derived from the Latin term pro bono publico meaning "for the public good," the term pro-bono refers to professional work undertaken voluntarily and without compensation as a means of applying and contributing our professional skills as a public service or for the public good. As part of our pro-bono work, we routinely provide free consultations, maintain several blogs with topical legal information as well as represent clients.
