Our Pro Bono Projects
"Pro Bono" derives from the Latin meaning "for the good".
The phrase is used to describe legal work undertaken voluntarily, "for the good" of another person.
Getting involved in pro bono gives students the chance to gain a greater understanding of how the legal system works in practice, something that cannot be gained by merely studying law.
As these projects offer a vital service to the community, pro bono work also gives students the chance to give something back to society. It is a good way to demonstrate key skills that employers look for, such as communication, leadership and team work. As such, it is a great achievement to place on your CV.
This year, the Law Society has more projects running than ever before, which means we want as many people volunteering as possible. The amount of time and commitment needed varies with each project. However, as many people rely on the services that these projects offer, it is important that anybody wishing to get involved must be prepared to honour their obligations throughout the whole of the year.
