The Solicitors’ Program is designed to facilitate the provision of pro bono legal services to charitable and non-profit community organizations of limited means.
PBLBC staff receive requests from community organizations throughout the province, and then endeavour to match each request to a roster lawyer within workable reach. PBLBC staff screen requests for eligibility, connect community organizations to lawyers, and provide ongoing support and resources to roster lawyers.
Roster lawyers provide legal advice and assistance to community organizations in all areas of non-profit law, including incorporation and by-laws, registrations for charitable status, employment matters, contracts and lease agreements. Roster lawyers also conduct seminars on such topics as board of directors’ liability, privacy policies and board governance.
