What Is A Pro Bono Attorney & How Can You Benefit From Their Services?

A pro bono attorney is one who offers free or reduced-cost legal representation for a range of civil and criminal litigation matters. No one, aside from someone charged with a crime, is guaranteed free legal help. However, there are many free legal services and programs that will connect you with pro bono attorneys in your area. Finding a lawyer to represent you in a court of law can be very expensive at times and not every person can afford one. However, there are pro bono programs that match lawyers who volunteer their time to low-income clients, typically only charging them a fee if they win. Below are some legal areas where you may find pro bono services in your area:

• Housing
• Bankruptcy
• Divorce
• Domestic Violence
• Child Custody
• Immigration
• Unemployment Cases

If you are charged with a crime, the constitution of the United States of America states guarantees that the person charged will receive free legal representation provided they are unable to pay for attorney services. If an individual finds themselves in such a position, all they have to do is request the court to appoint a lawyer on their behalf during the court appearance.

Mostly, the first appearance is usually within the first twenty-four hours after a person has been arrested. The court in most instances makes a person sign an affidavit declaring that they are broke and that they only have few possessions as well as funds that can cater for representation payments.

How Do 'Pro Bono' Cases Work?

People with non-criminal, meritorious legal issues who cannot afford to pay attorneys' fees should not be shy about seeking pro bono services. There are lawyers and law firms who set aside time and non-billable hours for this reason. Typically there are a set of requirements you need to meet in order to be eligible for pro bono services. These requirements may vary from agency to agency or firm to firm.

If you meet these requirements, you will be given an appointment to come in and speak with an intake worker. They will carefully note the details of your case and present them to the deciding manager who will evaluate the merits of your case. If your case does not meet the guidelines, you will be given a referral to another agency.

If your case is accepted, the intake worker will find a pro bono attorney to help you. Where the agency can assist, but is backlogged, say in the area of domestic and family law, your name may go on a waiting list until an opening occurs. You will not be charged any fees for this service, nor the services of the pro bono attorney.

Why Do Attorneys Offer Free Legal Aid?

The pro bono attorney qualification is the exact same for paying and non-paying clients. They are licensed legal professionals who work in law firms, private practices and non-profit agencies. Their reasons for offering free services are varied: from getting experience in a particular field to presenting a positive image of the firm to the community.

However, the overwhelming majority donate their professional services because they want to. They want to help others as a way of giving back to their communities and make a tangible difference in people's lives. No cost legal aid provided by attorneys can help those in needs. Society is much better off for the sacrifices pro bono attorneys make for others. Their invaluable work means that indigent clients with legitimate legal needs can have competent legal representation when going to court. Without their services, low-income communities would forgo the legal process simply because they cannot pay and have no idea how to present a pro se case. This is why the work of pro bono attorneys is so important. They give access to justice to many who would not otherwise have it.

10 Tips For Finding A Pro Bono Lawyer & No Cost Legal Aid

Most lawyers will mostly advertise for paid services and will do little advertisement for their pro bono services. Finding a lawyer who is totally willing to help can be a hassle without the right tips. To find the right pro bono lawyer:

1. Look for attorneys who have won several pro bono cases
2. Call the top attorneys and ask if they can take the case
3. Contact your county or state bar association
4. Find a firm with enough resources to handle the case
5. Do not go around targeting all law firms (a lot of time may be wasted for nothing)
6. Target lawyers that have recently graduated
7. Look to legal aid societies
8. Never sacrifice quality
9. Contact a non-profit organization
10. Be courteous and polite.

Cardi B’s Friend Star Brim indicted in federal Bloods gang take down

Cardi B’s Best Friend Star Brim indicted in federal Bloods gang takedown

https://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/ny-cardi-friend-gang-indictment-20200218-n5guageoofc7hd4vudrxqvvmhm-story.html

The pregnant best friend of Bronx rapper Cardi B was among nearly a dozen alleged members of a Bloods gang subset indicted Tuesday on a sweeping number of violence and conspiracy charges.

Brim — real name Yonette Respass — was one of the defendants named in an incrimination of gang members in the Southern District of New York Tuesday. She is accused of being the highest-ranking female member of the gang and is charged with slashing a person and participating in a racketeering conspiracy.

The Federal prosecutors said Yonette Respass, known in rap and gang circles as Star Brim, is the highest-ranking female member of the 5-9 Brims, a Bloods offshoot behind vengeful bar attacks that landed Cardi B in legal trouble.

Despite being in jail at the time, Respass ordered and orchestrated a violent assault against bartenders at Angels, a Queens strip club, in August 2018 because 5-9 Brims members believed the bartenders had disrespected another member of the gang, officials said.

From jail, she told associates ostensibly to “pop that bottle” on the bartenders.

In addition to these charges, Respass and ten other members of the 5-9 Brims were also charged in an indictment by the Eastern District of New York in Brooklyn.

NONEILLAH IS REMEMBERING RAPPER POP SMOKE

NONEILLAH IS REMEMBERING RAPPER POP SMOKE

Died: February 19, 2020, West Hollywood, CA Trending

Born: July 20, 1999, Brooklyn, New York, NY

1:20 PM PT -- The friend who was hanging with Pop Smoke and photographed with him hours before he was killed, Mike Dee, has spoken out about the tragedy ... saying nothing can express the pain he's feeling, and addressing unfounded speculation about what happened.

Mike says ... "I just lost my f***ing brother, my heart my dawgz. You guys have no type of sense or sympathy! Yall don't no whats going on yall come on here playing investigator and bashing me on the internet, I would never in my life set my brother up."

He concludes with a message for Pop, saying ... "Just knew I got you forever brother the truth will come to light until then sleep in peace."

9:41 AM PT -- Sources familiar with the surveillance video tell TMZ ... the video shows at least 4 masked men with hoodies making their way into the house just 10 minutes after people inside the house dead bolted the front doors shut. We're told they did not turn the house alarm on, which made it easier for the home invaders to get inside.

And, there's this ... Pop Smoke posted the address of the home earlier in the day. He was showing off gift bags he had received and one had the home's address. As for why he was getting gift bags ... his mix tape hit #7 on the Billboard 200 chart Tuesday.

8:03 AM PT -- Just hours before he was gunned down, Pop Smoke mugged with a pal in a car -- the friend holding a fortune in bills -- in the driveway of the home where he was shot.
