Why would a big firm need pro bono counsel?
Thanks for the reply. I am wondering if it’s a feasible transition for me in the future.
Other big firms or prominent non-profits/NGOs
I work at a pretty well known NGO and would like to figure out how to transition to a pro bono counsel role in the future. I mentor a good bit of attorneys at big firms. I love the work I do but it would be cool to also make some money doing it. I wanted to see if people here knew more about these roles at big law.
I thought husch Blackwell was hiring specific pro bono counsel, but it seems uncommon to me
It’s pretty common for firms to have dedicated pro Bono counsel or coordinators. But I would think that the positions still come up relatively rarely. Running larger public interest programs would seem to be a good transition point. Start trying to establish relationships with firms now by getting their attorneys involved with your org.
