The Pro Bono Initiative is a voluntary program whose primary goal is to emphasize the fundamental role of public service in the legal profession. It seeks to instill a greater awareness among students of their ethical responsibility to provide legal services to the disadvantaged. It is hoped that law students who make pro bono work a part of their education will continue that commitment in their professional lives, helping to assure that all citizens receive quality legal services. In addition, law students are introduced to a broad variety of substantial areas of law and methods of practice.

Disclaimer:  the Pro Bono Initiative does not offer legal representation, have attorneys on staff you can personally speak with or take appointments.  We do offer Free Advice Legal Clinics (at other locations) to low-income Utahns.  Please view our flyer on Free Legal Clinics for further information.
