<br /> Reach. Connect. Change. Pro Bono Review<br /> <br /> Scott Harshbarger<br /> Chair, Pro Bono Initiative Committee<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> It’s been my experience that<br /> lawyers across the nation feel a<br /> strong obligation to respond to<br /> the needs of the community.<br /> <br /> <br /> That means taking advantage of our skills to help people who, in most cases, can’t<br /> find help elsewhere. At Proskauer, we take it a step further. We encourage our lawyers<br /> to take on matters that truly speak to their values and reflect their personal stories.<br /> When you have a lawyer like that on your side, one whose mind and heart are fully<br />
