Our lawyers assess eligibility for our service and whether there is legal merit in their matter. Where merit, the lawyers try to organise a private lawyer to help pro bono. The intern will provide support to our lawyers on tasks relating to their applicant (client) files and on related projects. This will include legal research, legal drafting and eligibility assessments. All work will be from our office and interns will not have direct contact with applicants.
