Pro Bono attorneys assist the most vulnerable children and adults in our community with a range of legal issues that include child support, consumer fraud, elder abuse, civil rights, domestic violence, housing discrimination and a range of other issues.

In 2005,  the CBA Board of Managers reaffirmed its longstanding commitment to pro bono by unanimously adopting an updated version of the CBA’s Pro Bono Resolution, first adopted in 1995.  The updated Pro Bono Resolution, which the CBA’s Legal Aid Committee drafted, calls upon CBA members to contribute a minimum of 50 hours of pro bono work and/or $250 or the equivalent of two billable hours, whichever is greater, per year to support the legal aid system.
