Description: While pro bono services have always been important, the demand for free or low-cost legal representation has only compounded since the onset of the pandemic. [1] During this time, many corporations have engaged in strategic pro bono partnerships with law firms to offer assistance to those in need of public service.

Please join Ad Idem on August 16 for a Webinar panel with Debbie Berman, Partner and Co-Chair of the Pro Bono Committee at Jenner & Block, and Nura Maznavi, Pro Bono Counsel at Jenner & Block. Ms. Berman and Ms. Maznavi will discuss Jenner & Block’s pro bono program and its expansion into partnerships with clients. We will also hear from Abbott Laboratories Senior Counsel Jordan Heinz and Schneider Electric Senior Counsel Sarah Lang about their experiences partnering with Jenner & Block’s pro bono program.
