IBA International Pro Bono

Law and Legal Affairs: Free legal advice service on its way to Scotland

Tuesday, December 14, 2010

IT HAS taken a long time, but a free legal advice service is coming to Scotland at last. Early in 2011, LawWorks Scotland will be up and running, giving lawyers a formal opportunity to offer pro bono services to those who need them.


The project has been backed by Lord Advocate Elish Angiolini and the chief executive of the Law Society, Lorna Jack. The society is providing office space at its Drumsheugh Gardens HQ to get LawWorks started.
