Pro Bono

Student Pro Bono Group

Pro Bono Publico means for the ‘good of the public’. Legal pro bono work involves providing free legal assistance to members of the public who would otherwise be unable to afford it. Students in the School of Law are actively involved in serving the local community in this way – and developing their legal skills in the process.

There are two ways of becoming involved, The student pro bono group and through our Legal Advice Centre.

The Queen Mary Student Pro Bono Group

Over 250 students are involved in the QMSPBG (described as ‘one of the best’ student pro bono groups in the country) from their first year through to their final year at Queen Mary. As students develop their skills and legal knowledge, they are able to become involved in increasingly challenging and hands-on projects. For more information, visit the QMSPBG website.
