Lawyers from across our practice provide effective and creative pro bono legal assistance to women and families in need, both in this country and abroad, including assistance with domestic and immigration issues and work with microfinance organizations. A majority of our women-focused pro bono work is made up of family law and asylum cases, primarily on behalf of victims of domestic violence and abuse.
