Who are the people that fund or finance probono cases and services?
A pro bono state support staff may be funded from various sources. Typical sources include bar association support and contributions from legal services organizations and individuals within the state. A state may also wish to explore the possibility of other sources of funding, including grants and filing fee funds.
Pro bono work can be incredibly rewarding, but it’s not typically financially profitable. Not every attorney can afford to donate the time and resources necessary to fulfill pro bono obligations. Normally, lawyers who take pro bono cases do not get paid but they may receive compensation and may also receive waivers of court costs and other filing fees.
