Message from Fredrik Karlsson about Pro bono: Leading Lights
Several factors played a role in drawing up this list. These include firms’ answers to the survey with regards toinstitutionalisation of the practice, work done and examples of their recent pro bono cases. We also asked for feedback fromclearinghouses and the Vance Center and considered the development of firms’ pro bono practices if they participated inearlier surveys, as well as further research. The list includes behemoths of the regional legal community bringing significantresources to bear, and small firms from whom personal dedication can make a significant difference.
This is by no means an exhaustive list (for a start, it only mentions firms that participated in our survey), but we hope it willgive readers an idea of the efforts that firms across Latin America are taking to provide free legal services to those in need.
Of course, it should be noted that simply participating in this survey demonstrates awareness among all participants of theneed for pro bono, and each one had interesting developments to report. We hope that all respondents will continue toadvance their pro bono practices and come back to us to report their efforts in the years to come.
