By-Laws 4 and 5 amended respecting Pro Bono legal services and annual fee
Friday, June 27, 2008
- Organization: Law Society of Upper Canada
Lawyers in the 25% and 50% (non-practising) fee categories who wish to provide pro bono legal services through Pro Bono Law Ontario (PBLO) may now apply to the Law Society to be exempt from the requirement to pay 100% of the Law Society's annual fee, mirroring the LAWPRO insurance levy exemption for non-practising lawyers who provide LAWPRO-approved PBLO pro bono legal services. By-Law 5 [Annual Fee] and By-Law 4 [Licensing] were amended to reflect the new policy.
