"My client is a hard-working single mother who was struggling to manage separately pending parenting, child support, and domestic violence matters. With assistance from McLane's family law practice, I have helped my client achieve positive results in these ongoing cases, and she has gained the confidence to assert and protect her rights in a system that she previously found intimidating. Devoting just a small part of one's practice to pro bono work can have a major impact on the fortunes of a client who could not otherwise afford a lawyer, and I consider it an essential part of my experience here at McLane." - Patrick Taylor, Associate |
The firm recognizes and affirms its continuing commitment to undertake pro bono work. The work affords attorneys an opportunity to perform an enormously needed and worthwhile service. The range of pro bono work in New Hampshire is broad and includes opportunities for attorneys of all disciplines. Accordingly, each McLane attorney is encouraged to provide 30 to 50 hours annually of pro bono legal services. Individuals qualified to receive pro bono representation are referred to McLane by the New Hampshire Bar's Pro Bono Referral System.
We take our pro bono commitment seriously. Pro bono work undertaken by the firm is subject to the same standards of attention and professional performance as any other work undertaken by the firm. All McLane lawyers working on pro bono matters are able to seek advice and assistance from lawyers working in the various specialty areas that may be relevant to the matter in question. The firm ensures that an experienced attorney is available to consult when appropriate on pro bono matters being handled by any lawyer in the firm.
