    Extractions: A Summer in the Trenches By Jenny Leisten L ike many other students, I dreaded searching for a summer position. The thought of spending my first internship cooped up in a law firm library utterly depressed me. I wanted hands-on, practical experience with the law. I wanted to actually get to meet clients and help them. I wanted to fight the bad guys. I wanted to have fun. Thanks to the Public Interest Job Fair, I found a great position at North Central Legal Assistance Program. For those of you unfamiliar with Legal Aid (as I was), it�s basically free legal assistance for low-income persons. To qualify for services, a family has to meet the federal guidelines for poverty. Most of my clients this summer didn�t even have a telephone. Resources are slim at Legal Aid, which is actually an advantage for summer interns. Since there is always too much work to do and too few people to do it, I was immediately given a lot of responsibility. On my first morning, I had 12 cases to handle. By the second week, I was doing all the domestic client intake. By the third week, I was representing clients by myself before the Employment Security Commission. At the end of the summer I had closed over 60 cases. Most days, I began work at 9 a.m. I usually had around four to five phone calls to make � some to clients, some to witnesses, others to attorneys. I drafted various documents � complaints, answers, motions, interrogatories, etc. On Wednesdays and Thursday I handled intake, which meant that I spent 15 to 30 minutes interviewing new clients about their legal problems. On Fridays I presented these cases to the attorneys at the staff meeting, where the attorneys bombarded me with questions, half of which I had not thought to ask the client. Based on the facts of my presentation, the attorneys decided whether they could accept the case.

    Extractions: By James L. Baillie M ost lawyers who provide pro bono services are litigators and they are providing litigation-oriented services. But more than half of all lawyers are not litigators and they participate in pro bono at a much lower level. Involving that other half of the profession in pro bono services is a challenge. But it is a challenge that can be met through pro bono programs that call on their skills. Pro bono programs seeking more volunteers to help with these clients, especially in family law, have noted the resistance of business lawyers, including lawyers on corporate legal staffs. Efforts have been undertaken to recruit, train and retain "non-litigation" lawyers to provide family law and other traditional litigation services. There have been some successes. Some non-litigators have enjoyed expanding their legal skills and helping these clients. Some have become outstanding volunteers. But they are the minority. As early as the 1970s, corporate legal staffs began pro bono programs, often in partnership with local legal aid or pro bono programs. But after initial bursts of enthusiasm, many of these programs have declined.

The Pro Bono Recognition Program directs interested students towards general pro bono opportunities, facilitates a student-attorney network to provide students with individual pro bono projects, and recognizes students for their contributions to the community through pro bono work.
