Lex Mundi Pro Bono Foundation

The Lex Mundi Pro Bono Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit affiliate of Lex Mundi, the world’s leading association of independent law firms.  The Foundation calls upon Lex Mundi’s unique global network of 160 top-tier commercial law firms to provide legal assistance to select “social entrepreneurs” on a pro bono basis.  By providing social entrepreneurs with access to critically needed legal assistance, the Foundation joins the global social entrepreneur movement for positive social change.

The Foundation is a “matchmaker” and does not practice law.  Social entrepreneurs who have been vetted, endorsed and/or supported by one or more of the Foundation’s Collaborators are eligible for pro bono legal assistance arranged by the Foundation.
