A new pro bono report literally puts the world at in-house counsel’s fingertips.

The 2012 edition of Latham & Watkins’ Survey of Pro Bono Practices and Opportunities in Select Jurisdictions, conducted in conjunction with the Pro Bono Institute (PBI), provides an overview of the legal landscape in dozens of countries around the globe, including details about local legal aid programs, unmet legal needs, the cultural perception of pro bono and rules about engaging in pro bono work. The report serves as a guide for law firms, nongovernmental organizations, legal departments and other interested parties that want to pursue international pro bono projects.
