Pro Bono
Diwan Advocates has a long-standing commitment to the
development and delivery of legal services to people of limited
means. We believe that the firm has maintained its remarkable
pro bono momentum by developing an incredibly diverse range of
opportunities for our volunteers. To this end, we provide our
services free of charge/pro bono, for the public good, for a
wide range of clients, from individual asylum seekers to some of
the big charities and non-governmental organisations (NGOs). The
treatment given to our pro bono clients in the same standards as
we take care of our fee-earning clients; for, we owe them the
same professional duties. Where cases require cross-practice,
cross-border support, we bring together teams from as many
disciplines and offices as needed. We partner with advice
centres and other local charities to deliver advice and, where
appropriate, representation to individuals in need. Our work in
this area is focused around the Rule of Law mainly.
