Pro Bono Legal Work: A guide for in-house corporate lawyers

Published on 21 March 2023 The Guide is an invaluable resource for in-house legal teams looking to get involved in pro bono work, featuring case studies highlighting the different ways in-house corporate lawyers can engage in pro bono legal work.

Pro Bono Legal Work – A guide for in-house corporate lawyers was first published in 2017, based on DLA Piper’s 2013 publication, The Australian In-house Legal Counsel Pro Bono Guide. The Guide has been updated in 2023 to reflect changes to the legal landscape, including increased focus by society on corporate social impact and to provide up-to-date templates and recent case studies of corporate pro bono practice.

“I commend the Australian Pro Bono Centre, the Association of Corporate Counsel and the Law Societies around Australia for the continued efforts to promote pro bono to in-house corporate lawyers and their ongoing commitment to making a difference in our communities through pro bono legal work." - Mei Ramsay
