Pro Bono Work Pays!

Our “Books 4 Pro Bono” initiative offers free or deeply discounted Texas Family Law Practice Manuals to lawyers who attend “Family Law Essentials for $200 or Free” seminar and agree to take on pro bono cases in underrepresented areas of the state. We met pro bono volunteer Michelle Latray at this month’s Advanced Family Law Seminar, and here’s what she had to say:

“Through Books 4 Pro Bono, I received a copy of the Texas Family Law Practice Manual (download), and I am absolutely thrilled.  It’s proven to be a wonderful resource and has been a great timesaver.  Recently in a custody case involving a military family with one party stationed in Hawaii, the Family Law Practice Manual came to the rescue with the form including the exact language for the long distance travel provisions. 

“Even better, as a result of the pro bono cases I accepted through Legal Aid, I received multiple client referrals.  The pro bono work ended up ‘paying off’ in more ways than one!”

Look for Family Law Essentials seminars in rural areas next summer!
