Pro Bono Lawyers

Are you a lawyer who is willing to help us defend the right to information? If so, join our Pro Bono Network.

To fully defend the right to information, we sometimes need specific pro bono legal assistance. To meet this need, Access Info has created a pro bono legal network made up of lawyers from across Europe with varying legal backgrounds.

To join this network, it isn’t necessary to be an expert in the right to information, as Access Info will hold training sessions on this right, how it functions in practice and the practical problems we face in accessing that right.

Requirements:

  • Are you a qualified lawyer or do you have a strong legal background?
  • Are you willing to learn about the right to information?
  • Are you willing to offer pro bono assistance?

If you would like to join our network, get in contact: rachel[at]access-info.org

Other Ways to Get Involved: Get Social!

There are many ways in which you can become involved in the work of Access Info to advance and defend the right to know in Europe, and globally.
