Participating Attorneys may attend every session of interest. Training is without charge, but space is limited for live sessions and priority is given to law firms whose generosity makes this program possible and who partner with The Legal Aid Society to provide pro bono legal services to low-income New Yorkers. These seminars also are open to Attorney Emeritus lawyers who are transitioning from a full-time legal practice or have retired and wish to contribute their time and expertise on behalf of low-income New Yorkers. Additional information about The Legal Aid Society and its Pro Bono Practice can be found on our website, www.legal-aid.org.
