We are Dedicated to Pro Bono Work and Community Involvement

At AugusteAllen, we believe everyone deserves to be heard, regardless of their ability to pay!

At AugusteAllen Law, LLC, we believe that justice should be accessible to all, regardless of financial means. Our firm’s dedication to pro bono work and community involvement is a powerful reflection of that belief. We are relentless in our mission to serve underserved communities, providing top-tier legal representation to those who cannot afford it. Whether guiding individuals through Temporary Protected Status applications, fighting for victims of employment discrimination, or advocating for fair labor practices, we bring the same fierce dedication and expertise to our pro bono cases as we do to our paying clients.

But our commitment goes beyond the courtroom. We actively engage with the communities we serve, collaborating with local organizations and churches, leading educational workshops, and participating in outreach programs to empower individuals with knowledge about their rights. From workers and immigrants’ rights to anti-discrimination laws, we work to equip people with the tools they need to advocate for themselves.

At AugusteAllen Law, LLC, we understand that real justice isn’t just about winning cases—it’s about making a lasting impact. Our pro bono and community involvement efforts embody our unwavering dedication to building a more just and equitable society. Through our work, we strive to ensure that every person has access to the legal support they need to succeed.

About Pro Bono

Why do we and other firms typically offer pro bono services?

We offer pro bono services in order to give back to our community, promote justice, and ensure access to legal representation for all, regardless of financial circumstances. It is also a way for us to fulfill our ethical obligations and support causes we believe in.

If you receive pro bono legal assistance, you can expect professional, high-quality legal services from us just as a paying client would. However, we may take on limited aspects of your case, and the timeline might vary depending on our other obligations.

Individuals or groups who cannot afford legal fees typically qualify for pro bono services. For us, eligibility often depends on income level, the nature of the case, and whether the issue impacts public interest, such as civil rights or access to justice for vulnerable populations.

Pro bono work refers to volunteer legal services provided by private attorneys, while legal aid is typically offered by government-funded or nonprofit organizations. Legal aid programs provide ongoing, structured support for low-income individuals, often staffed by full-time attorneys.
