Over the past 50+ years, access to justice has developed into a movement. Pro Bono work has moved beyond traditional direct, “one client, one case” representation. Following this trend, opportunities for private attorneys to assist us to bridge the justice gap through pro bono work and support have expanded. Coast to Coast Legal Aid of South Florida (CCLA) offers different ways for you to volunteer with us to help ensure access to justice in our communities. Whether you are a new attorney or experienced attorney, we offer different opportunities for you to give back.

In response to a need for legal services to the poor, the Florida Supreme Court ruled in 1992 that lawyers should aspire to do at least 20 hours of pro bono work a year or contribute $350 to a legal aid organization like Coast to Coast Legal Aid of South Florida. Volunteering to do pro bono work enriches the community where you live and work. Increased pro se education, advice, and representation helps the court system work more efficiently and effectively. It’s the right thing to do. The best part, it makes you feel good.
Let us know what types of cases you would be interested in handling pro bono!
Florida Bar Rule 4-6.1 advocates 20 hours of pro bono service per year and/or making a donation of at least $350.
