In the Community

Pro Bono Work

Since its founding, Joseph & Hall P.C. recognized the need for pro bono work in our community. To help meet that need, Joseph & Hall P.C. has long committed itself to serving selected clients on a pro bono basis. The Colorado Supreme Court’s Pro Bono Legal Service Commitment and Recognition Program has recognized Joseph & Hall P.C.’s pro bono commitment and achievement every year since 2006.

Joseph & Hall P.C. decides whether to take on a case pro bono after considering a number of factors, including:

• The demonstrated financial need of the potential pro bono client;
• The existing pro bono workload;
• The type of case and previous experiences with similar cases;
• The potential pro bono client’s commitment to cooperating and communicating with our staff;
• Whether the legal issues are expected to be novel or whether the case presents an exceptional opportunity for professional growth for the attorneys and staff involved.
