It is the goal of Thomas Jefferson School of Law that all of its students and graduates have an opportunity to experience the many benefits of Pro Bono work. Working with underserved populations both in traditional legal settings and through projects within the community enables law students to gain valuable experience as well as serve a vital function that every lawyer should be committed to; using their unique education and skills to help underserved populations.
It is TJSL’s goal to partner with non-profit organizations, law firms, the San Diego County Bar Association and other interested entities to accomplish this goal. We look forward to partnering within our own TJSL community by engaging faculty, administration, staff and alumis in our efforts to work within our own region. For more information please contact the Externship and Pro Bono office.
