This program is part of a series of webinars reprising and supplementing select sessions from the 2015 PBI Annual Conference. A growing number of transactional pro bono opportunities, including complex and sophisticated ones, involve social entrepreneurs and small businesses. This practical discussion will focus on best practices for providing pro bono representation to these transformative “change agents,” including locating appropriate clients, assessing eligibility, dealing with potential conflicts, identifying the appropriate scope of pro bono legal work, and reassessing relationships when clients achieve financial success.

•Judah Ariel, Sidley Austin
•Jennifer DaSilva, Start Small Think Big, Inc.
