11. No-Cost Legal Advice for Not-for-Profits

 As a not-for profit organization, you may have legal questions but lack 
the financial resources to compensate legal counsel.  Pro Bono student 
volunteers from the Faculty of Law, University of Western Ontario, have 
the skills to research your legal issues. Even better, the service is 
offered at no cost.  With guidelines from a lawyer-mentor, law students 
volunteer their time to complete legal research projects during the 
academic year.  

 Project requests for 2003-04 should be submitted to the Law School by 
July 10, 2003.  For more information contact John Norton, Coordinator, 
Pro Bono Students Canada at law.probono@uwo.ca,or call 661-2111 ext 81195.
