Great to have the Solicitor General @sarahsackman supporting the work of pro bono lawyers and charities this #ProBonoWeek - @Law_Works is so thankful to all its member firms & in house teams who volunteer their legal expertise to further access to justice.
As a young lawyer, I volunteered at legal advice centres & saw first-hand the professionalism & dedication of lawyers in supporting the most vulnerable in society who often otherwise couldn’t access legal support. That’s the power of Pro Bono. #ProBonoWeek @NLawGlobal
