Pro Bono Week promotes and supports the work of lawyers who volunteer their services for free to people and organizations who couldn’t otherwise afford legal advice. The national celebration of pro bono is held the last week of October each year.
A power of attorney is a legal document that allows someone to act on your behalf in financial, legal, and healthcare matters. It ensures someone you trust can manage your affairs if you become disabled or unable to make decisions due to illness or injury.
