Body

PILA runs a Pro Bono Referral Scheme that connects social justice organisations with free legal expertise. We work with a wide range of social justice partners, including community organisations, non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and independent law centres. NGO partners can obtain free legal assistance where they do not have the resources or in-house expertise, in the following ways: Legal Advice, Law Reform Working Groups, Strategic Litigation Support, Legal Education Sessions and Signature Projects  where a law firm and NGO forge an ongoing partnership to fill an unmet legal need.
