Pro Bono Ontario is here to help Ontarians who have essential legal needs but can’t afford a lawyer.
About us
Founded in 2001, Pro Bono Ontario is an access to justice charity that leverages lawyers’ goodwill to help low-income Ontarians address legal issues that interfere with their ability to lead secure, healthy and productive lives. PBO delivers on this mission by creating and managing programs that provide high-quality legal services to the public and offer risk-managed, supported opportunities for lawyers to give back. PBO addresses common but underserved civil, non-family legal issues. They include employment, consumer protection, housing, civil procedure and education law matters. We provide low-barrier services by embedding them in frontline environments like hospitals and using technology. Our Free Legal Advice Hotline handles over 30,000 calls annually, with 86% of callers saying it’s their first chance to speak with a lawyer about their issue, and 72% resolving their legal problems through hotline consultations alone. Volunteer opportunities are available for: • private practice lawyers • government lawyers • in-house counsel • retired lawyers • law students

A great big thank you to the team from Dentalcorp, and especially to Julian Perez, for all his support in hosting a fantastic Pro Bono Ontario Sponsor Day today! As a dedicated PBO board member, Julian's leadership and commitment to access to justice is making a real difference.

Lawyers in RBC’s Chief Legal and Administrative Officer Group recently completed another successful volunteer day with Pro Bono Ontario for “RBC Day.” This year, they advised nearly 60 low-income Ontario residents with legal advice on issues ranging from employment, consumer protection, civil litigation, housing, and will & estates. We have been proudly volunteering with Pro Bono Ontario since 2017 and continue to help our communities prosper. Thank you to the organizers and participants for another rewarding year of this great initiative!

It's been a busy week for Pro Bono Ontario - on Tuesday and Wednesday, lawyers from CIBC Legal and Torys LLP once again generously dedicated their time, resources, and expertise to volunteering on the Pro Bono Ontario Free Legal Advice Hotline. We enjoyed two incredible in-person sponsor days, where lawyers from CIBC Legal and Torys LLP came together to support access to justice in Ontario. A huge thank you to Linda Plumpton and Hayley Peglar for their help in organizing these sponsor days. PBO would also like to express their gratitude to the leadership at CIBC and Torys LLP for their unwavering support. Finally, none of this would have been possible without the outstanding efforts of the dedicated lawyers who volunteered their time and skills. Your dedication is helping us move closer to our goal of 100% access to justice in Ontario. #ProBonoOntario #AccessToJustice #Volunteer #CIBC #Torys #GivingBack #100PercentA2J
