Legal services organizations do not have the resources to meet the legal needs of low-income individuals and communities. The private sector is a key partner in efforts to close the justice gap - but is pro bono work enough? Join us for a discussion about the actual and ideal roles of private law firms in addressing the justice gap.

Panelists include:
Harlene Katzman, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP
Steven H. Schulman, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP

Presented in celebration of Pro Bono Week
