Are there any guidelines or set of standards for pro bono legal work in the countries of France, Germany, and the UK? Background: In the United States, the American Bar Association has guidelines for Pro Bono legal work called ABA MODEL RULE 6.1. It can be found at this URL: http://www.abanet.org/legalservices/probono/rule61.html These are simply guidelines that each individual state may choose to adopt, but ultimately, each state can create their own guidelines. However, most states choose to simply adopt rule 6.1 into their own individual state bar association guidebooks. Some US state bar associations have completely different guidelines (NY, DC, CA) So, my question is, are there any guidelines or standards for Pro Bono work in the UK, France, or Germany? (Maybe something similar to ABA Model 6.1 applicable to the respective country?) Also, are there any international guidelines or standards for pro bono legal work? |

This is just a free comment and not an answer to your question. I don?t know how much these sites can help you since they are in German. The first one is that of the forum established by the Deutcher Anwaltsverein (German lawyers? association) specifically to allow discussion of different types of pro bono work. The second site shows the title article on the subject from the magazine of the Berlin lawyer?s association, and the third one is a discussion of the subject. Many websites of German law firms mention ?pro bono? activity, mostly international firms with offices and partners in Germany, which have increased greatly in number in recent years. The last two sites are just examples of this. http://www.anwaltsforum.de/forum/index.php?c=6&sid=500245e7a713ba6ecc2b20877f05c86b http://www.berliner.anwaltsverein.de/Downloads/AW_02_05.pdf http://www.advonet.info/ju2187.htm http://www.allenovery.com/asp/general.asp?pageid=253&languageid=0& http://www.lovells.com/Lovells/AboutLovells/ProBono/Involvement/Introduction.htm I doubt that this will suggest an answer to your direct question about a guideline or standard from the German Bar Association (Deutsche Rechtsanwaltskammer), but I hope a view of scene will be of some help. |
