Recognition for Pro Bono Services

The Colorado Supreme Court, implementing RPC 6.1, recognizes those lawyers, law firms, and in-house counsel or government groups that have committed to the annual goal of providing 50 hours of pro bono legal services. A substantial majority of the pro bono work should be for persons of limited means and/or organizations serving persons of limited means. For firms, the 50-hour commitment is per-lawyer by Colorado-licensed attorneys, averaged across the firm and pro-rated for part-time attorneys. Firms must also commit to valuing such hours for all purposes of attorney evaluation, advancement, and compensation in the firm the same way the firm values compensated client representation. Those firms, groups, and individuals that achieved the goal in 2023 are recognized in the list below with an asterisk (listing as of July 1, 2024). To join this commitment or report achievement of the prior calendar year goal, please e-mail Jackie Marro, Access to Justice Coordinator, at ProBono@judicial.state.co.us

Note: Individual attorneys associated with a firm that is not participating in the program can receive recognition in their own names.

For examples of pro bono opportunities, you may use the following links for Colorado Legal Services, Colorado Lawyers Committee, and Metro Volunteer Lawyers.

Succession to Service is a statewide online portal designed to help lawyers find volunteer opportunities and assist Coloradoans with their legal needs. Through the free portal, volunteer lawyers and law students have a centralized location to search and sign up for pro bono opportunities across the state. ‘Visit Succession to Service and connect directly with Colorado’s legal services organizations and pro bono opportunities.’

You can also find pro bono options and opportunities on the Colorado Legal Help Center website.

Please note: Reporting is done by calendar year. An email is all that is required to report your achievement of the pro bono goal, renew your commitment despite falling short of the goal, or join the commitment for the first time. No form is required, and reporting is done on the honor system.
