We work to bring the power of the law to all by building cutting-edge digital tools and fostering collaborations with the nation's leading civil legal organizations. Founded New York City at the dawn of the Internet era, Pro Bono Net was created by two pro bono leaders at large law firms who recognized the potential of emerging technology to coordinate pro bono lawyers working for good.
Our flagship site, probono.net/ny, was launched that year to enhance collaboration and promote pro bono among New York City' legal community. A year after its founding, Pro Bono Net launched LawHelp.org/NY, a groundbreaking initiative to expand access to legal rights information and referrals for the public.

This is not a real non profit. This is someone’s failed passion project that they are propping up with state funding that is being spent in very suspicious ways. It is not actually even using the funding they receive properly. If you work here, be expected to be asked to do work completely uncompensated and if you push back on that you’ll lose your position.
The technology is completely defunct despite the fact that they claim to be a technology company. They have inaccurate reports for their funders, inaccurate metrics for their websites, the backends of their websites are broken, everything

They falsely advertise having information to help you find a pro bono lawyer, and when all they do is a google search. The also don’t inform you that they only help veterans and seniors (over 65) to me a group chat that can be easily misinformed and taken advantage of. I think they are a scam to get you to view their site and sign your email address up to a bunch of junk mail. Don’t waste your time.
