The Duquesne University School of Law has announced the addition of a new pro bono program designed to match private attorneys providing pro bono services with law students who are ready, willing and able to assist the attorneys in their pro bono matters. Here is how it works:

1. An attorney submits a form to Duquesne's Pro Bono Program, requesting law student assistance with his/her pro bono project.

2. The program then will advertise the project and make every effort to match a law student to assist the attorney with the project.

Examples of types of projects include research, writing, client in-take, litigation preparation, investigation, and advocacy. Law students already have volunteered to offer assistance.

To learn more about this new program or to submit a project to the Attorney/Student Pro Bono Matching Program, please visit Duquesne's website at http://www.law.duq.edu/career/SerProAtt.html.
