Being a Pro Bono volunteer helped me get involved with the legal community in Halifax and feel confident developing my skills in a supportive working environment. My Pro Bono work allowed me to feel a sense of responsibility to individuals outside of myself. It was truly one of the most rewarding experiences I have had in law school."

Pro Bono Service and Professional Responsibility

Review the given by Professor Kaiser, Faculty Advisor

果酱视频 us

Pro Bono 果酱视频 provides legal research and related services without charge to organizations and individuals in need, principally in Nova Scotia. We were among the first Pro Bono student programs founded in Canadian law schools. The program has operated continuously at 果酱视频 University since its inception in 2000.

The core mandate of Pro Bono 果酱视频 is to increase and foster access to justice initiatives. Law students volunteer their time to support the community in partnership with community coalitions, public interest organizations, government agencies, and other legal service providers.

Our students provided a wide range of services to the local community, from providing legal information, community outreach, conducting legal research, to assisting clients. Projects are in a broad range of areas, including immigration, disability rights, prison law, and the environment.听

Unfortunately, as a student-run organization, we are unable to provide legal advice or representation and cannot assist with personal matters.听听
