This collection of original essays by leading and emerging scholars in the field examines the history, conditions, organization, and strategies of pro bono lawyering. Private Lawyers and the Public Interest: The Evolving Role of Pro Bono in the Legal Profession traces the rise and impact of the American Bar Association's campaign to hold lawyers accountable for a commitment to public service and to encourage public service within law schools. Combining empirical legal research with reflections by practitioners and theorists about the meaning and practice of pro bono legal work, this collection of essays interrogates the public service ideals that are inscribed within the legal profession and places these ideals within a broader social, economic, ideological, and normative context. Particular attention is paid to the factors that explain why lawyers engage in pro bono work and the ways in which their views of pro bono are mediated by the institutional context of their legal practice. The book also explores the concept of "public" in public service and compares pro bono as a means of delivering legal services with other mechanisms such as state funding. Collectively, these essays investigate the evolving role of pro bono in the legal profession and in law schools, the relationship between pro bono ideals and pro bono in practice, the way that pro bono is shaped by external forces beyond the individual practitioner, and the multi-faceted nature of legal professionalism as expressed through pro bono practice.

This book explores the aspirational principles and actual practices concerning lawyers' pro bono service. It begins from the premise that both the profession and the public have much to gain from reducing the gap between ideals and institutions. To that end, the book provides the first broad-scale study of the factors that influence American lawyers' pro bono work, including an original empirical survey of over 3,000 lawyers. Attention is focused on the workplace factors and law school experiences that encourage charitable public interest activities. The book also includes the first comparative study of public service by looking at volunteer work by other professionals and by lawyers in other countries. Part I of the book explores the literature on altruistic commitments among the public in general, and lawyers in particular. Part II traces the evolution of attorneys' pro bono responsibilities. Part III presents findings of the empirical survey. Part IV draws on these findings, together with prior research, to propose strategies for increasing and improving lawyers' pro bono activity.

Over the past few decades, pro bono practice has undergone dramatic changes in how it is structured and has increasingly become institutionalized throughout the legal profession, especially across large law firms and law schools. In this study, I employ both quantitative and qualitative data to examine the institutionalization of pro bono in large elite law firms along two dimensions. First, I analyze large firm participation in terms of hours between 1993 and 2005 for the largest 200 firms in the United States. Specifically, I examine a variety of organizational and institutional factors that predict how much time a firm commits to its pro bono practice. Second, I analyze the scope of pro bono representation through a cross-sectional analysis of the inter-organizational relationships between a sample of large firms and their pro bono clients. My quantitative analyses are supplemented with interviews of pro bono coordinators across the county in order to contextualize contemporary pro bono practices. These interviews provide insights into how law firm actors structure their pro bono practice and the processes by which they decide to work with specific organizations. My findings challenge the functionalist imagery of pro bono, which is so prevalent in most discussions surrounding the topic. Pro bono is often thought to derive from the interests of different actors, including law students and corporate clients. Instead, my findings suggest that pro bono is best conceived as an institutional project that is driven not by the demands of interested actors but through social factors. In my quantitative analyses, I find that institutional factors are more important than organizational factors (e.g., profits per partner or number of lawyers) in predicting the amount of time that a firm commits to pro bono. Qualitative evidence supports these findings and indicates that the rise of pro bono ranking systems and competition with peer firms are more important factors driving how firms think about pro bono.
