What's the first step in starting a pro bono practice? "My advice is to raise your hand and get involved," says Louis Fogel, office managing principal for our Chicago office.

Louis adds, "The need for pro bono representation is never ending and there is always a client waiting. You don't need to be an expert to start, and if there's a cause you're passionate about, bring it to the firm, where there is likely a matching opportunity. You will get more out of it than you expect." #FishRichardson #ProBono
