In this episode of ProBono, Hannah Hafenscher and Julia Kalus talk about the history and mission of the European Forum Alpbach (EFA) with its Secretary General and Managing Director, Nick Donig. European Forum Alpbach is an organisation with a long-standing tradition, dating back to the 1940s. The EFA is not a typical conference, as everyone is shaping the program and has an opportunity to interact with each other. It brings together young people, activists, academics, politicians and scientists from Europe and around the world who are open for dialogue. They also discussed the role of the organisation today and the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration.Last but not least, Nick shared opportunities for students and young professionals, with EFA scholarship being the most exciting opportunity. If you're a student, young professional, or simply curious about one of Europe's most dynamic platforms for dialogue, this episode is a must listen.

There's a common belief that pro bono work is either “good exposure” or a total waste of time. In reality, it's neither, unless you're being intentional about it. Otherwise, it just becomes unpaid work that quietly eats your bandwidth.Whitney breaks down how solopreneurs and small business owners can approach pro bono work strategically, so it actually supports growth instead of distracting from it. The goal isn't to say yes more often, it's to know when it genuinely benefits your business long-term.She also unpacks how easy it is to fall into overworking for free under the idea of “building your portfolio,” and why that mindset needs boundaries if you want to scale sustainably.In This Episode, We Cover:When pro bono work actually pays off (and when it doesn't)How to evaluate opportunities for long-term business valueWhy boundaries matter more than “experience building”How to turn select free work into paid clients laterThe mindset shift from obligation to strategyIf this episode made you rethink free work, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone stuck in the “just take the opportunity” cycle.Connect with Whitney on InstagramConnect with Whitney on LinkedInYour Marketing Heroes Website

In this episode of Good in Practice, host Caroline Heller sits down with Elizabeth Hadley, a Greenberg Traurig shareholder in the firm's Austin office, to discuss a years-long pro bono legislative effort that culminated in a landmark victory for human trafficking survivors in Texas.  As the pro bono lobbyist for the Lone Star Justice Alliance, Elizabeth worked across multiple legislative sessions to pass a law establishing duress as a defense for victims of human trafficking who were forced to commit crimes by their abusers. The legislation, which was ultimately signed into law following a regular session, a gubernatorial veto, and a rare special session fix, allows survivors to introduce evidence of their history of trauma and exploitation at trial. Elizabeth and Caroline discuss the coalition-building and bipartisan cooperation that made the bill possible, the story of one survivor whose experience helped drive the effort, and what this work means to Elizabeth personally. They also reflect on how pro bono legislative work represents an often overlooked but powerful way for lawyers to give back to their communities.

In this episode, Hannah and Julia speak with the founders of Our Rule of Law (ORoL) Foundation about democracy, what it means to be the youngest voice t in the room and how youth can make a real impact. We had a pleasure to welcome Anna, Elene and Zuzanna, co-founders of ORoL Foundation, an organisation aiming to mobilise youth towards developing Pan-European policy solutions addressing the rule of law and democracy crisis. Our Rule of Law was founded in 2021, when Anna, Elene and Zuzanna were students at the University of Groningen. Inspired by a lecture on the rule of law crisis in Poland, they decided to continue the discussion with their Professor John Morijn and soon after, Our Rule of Law was born. Today, the organisation is a registered NGO in the Netherlands, bringing together young people who are dedicated to foster and understand the foundations of democracy. Since 2021, Our Rule of Law mobilized youth in various projects, such as the Vote4OurRuleofLaw (Vote4ORoL) Fellowship, designed to encourage young Europeans to engage more actively in the elections to the European Parliament .In September 2025, the organisation published ‘Our Democracy Report' written by Young Democracy Rapportours. The report is a joint effort of over 60 young researchers from 16 Member States, including Austria, as well as Ukraine. Listen to this episode to learn what it's like to build a student-led organisation and how youth can really make an impact in European policy-making. We also discuss the findings of the ‘Our Democracy Report' and Anna, Elene and Zuzanna share their stories and tips. We hope this episode can be both educational and inspiring!

Send us a textIt's beginning to look a lot like Christmas here in Houston, and in this episode it's beginning to look a lot like divorce -- along with other family law topics. This episode brings advice for family lawyers and pro bono attorneys who find themselves working on a family law case, and it also may serve as a resource for self-represented litigants in family court.  Segment One:  Best Practices in Family Court for Family Lawyers, Pro Bono Attorneys, and Self-Represented LitigantsJudge Gloria E. López (308th Family District Court), Judge Germaine Tanner (311th Family District Court), and Judge Janice Berg (247th Family District Court), provide practice tips based on their combined 18 years of experience as judges in Harris County Family Courts.

Importantly, if you are experiencing domestic violence, help is available - call 1-800-799-SAFE (7233).   Service Spotlight: Finding Time to Have a Heart and Raise AwarenessKelly LaPar (Senior Counsel for NRG Energy, Inc. in Operation and Generation) and Dr. Damian LaPar (Chief of Pediatric and Congenital Heart Surgery, Executive Co-Director of the UTHealth Houston Children's Heart Institute, and Professor in the Department of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Surgery at McGovern Medical School) are co-chairing the American Heart Association - Houston Chapter's Houston Heart Ball this February. They address the importance of giving back and how to find the time to do that, and they provide some tips (and potential New Year's resolutions) for cardiovascular wellness. It is a timely and important topic for Houston lawyers. Segment Three: When Practice Areas Intersect: Immigration and Family LawBehind-the-Lines interviewer Rinku Ray talks with Ana Maria Schwartz (Principal of Schwartz Immigration Law, PLLC) about the ways immigration law and family law intersect and provides important insight into immigration issues family lawyers may need to be aware of. This is a very interesting interview that should be of interest to all lawyers. Segment Four: The Nuts & Bolts of Guardianship Cases, A Rewarding Pro Bono ExperienceNew Behind-the-Lines interviewer Jennifer Smith talks with Gerald Kimani (Gibson Dunn) about his extensive pro bono work on guardianship cases. Kimani discusses the substantive details about filing guardianship applications as well as the benefits of this important pro bono service, and he also briefly addresses helping obtain expunction orders on a pro bono basis. For full speaker bios, visit The Houston Lawyer (hba.org/thehoustonlawyer).

In this open discussion episode, host Kendall Hotchkiss leads a candid conversation about navigating challenging client relationships on pro bono projects!This episode covers:Pro bono work requires boundaries too: Even volunteer projects need contracts, timelines, and scope definitions to prevent scope creep and maintain professional relationshipsThe contract as your bouncer: Setting up agreements after a project starts is still valuable - frame it as helping everyone get organized rather than creating frictionDesign by committee challenges: When working with clients who have some technical knowledge but lack expertise, lead with questions about their goals rather than telling them what's wrongTime as leverage: When there's no payment involved, your availability and timeline become your primary negotiating tools for maintaining boundariesThe 50% rule for resistance: If clients consistently push back on expert recommendations, especially on accessibility standards, you may need to accept their limitations and focus energy elsewhereWalking away professionally: Always have a referral ready and offer project files when exiting a difficult engagement - how you leave matters as much as how you startClient communication strategies: Mirror client language back to them, keep emails brief with links to detailed notes, and break feedback into specific review rounds to manage expectationsUpcoming Events:Next week's guest: Haley Akins from Motion Hatch!Garlic Phone Game Night: December 3rdOpen call for volunteers: Monday Meeting is seeking hosts and behind-the-scenes help for 2026Visit MondayMeeting.org for this episode and other conversations from the motion design community!SHOW NOTES:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Monday Meeting Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Monday Meeting Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠MondayMeeting Newsletter⁠

Thousands of Washington, D.C. area kids with disabilities rely on buses for transportation to the schools that can serve their educational needs — some of which are very far from their homes.

¿Puede un abogado cambiar el mundo? La respuesta es sí. Y nuestra invitada lo demuestra todos los días. En este nuevo episodio de Efecto Disruptivo, Juan del Cerro nos invita a descubrir una cara poco conocida pero esencial del ecosistema de impacto: la abogacía con propósito. Hablamos con Lila Gasca, directora del área Pro Bono en Hogan Lovells y líder de la Alianza Global de Abogados de Impacto (GAIL), quien nos comparte cómo el derecho puede ser una herramienta activa para construir una sociedad más justa, sostenible y responsable. A lo largo del episodio, Lila nos cuenta cómo pasó de una práctica legal tradicional a impulsar causas sociales, medioambientales y de gobernanza, convencida de que el derecho no solo debe regular, sino también transformar. Nos explica cómo los abogados pueden acompañar a empresas con propósito y organizaciones sociales para constituirse, levantar capital, proteger su misión y, sobre todo, mantenerse fieles a su impacto. Además, profundizamos en uno de los proyectos más esperanzadores del momento: la Ley BIC (Beneficio e Interés Colectivo), una iniciativa que busca reconocer legalmente en México a las empresas que generan valor económico, social y ambiental por igual. Una ley que podría cambiar la forma en que entendemos el emprendimiento en nuestro país, dándole una identidad jurídica a quienes deciden hacer negocios con propósito. También exploramos el próximo gran encuentro internacional de GAIL, la Cumbre de Abogados por el Impacto, que se celebrará del 13 al 15 de octubre en la Universidad Iberoamericana. Un espacio donde juristas, emprendedores, académicos y líderes globales se reunirán para repensar el papel de las profesiones en la construcción de un futuro más sostenible. Desde historias inspiradoras hasta reflexiones profundas sobre el poder del derecho, este episodio nos recuerda que no hay cambio posible sin leyes que lo respalden. Y que detrás de cada empresa de impacto, hay también mentes legales que están cambiando las reglas del juego.

Send us a textWhen Taylor Barlow decided to take on a pro bono asylum case, he never imagined it would become the most emotionally significant work of his legal career. His client's story reads like a political thriller – a peaceful activist from Togo who organized an 800,000-person march against a dictatorial regime, only to face years of brutal retaliation including kidnappings, beatings, and torture.After military police broke into his home, beating him and his young son unconscious, this father of two made the heartbreaking choice to leave his family behind and flee for his life. What followed was a harrowing two-month journey through South and Central America, including the notoriously deadly Darién Gap jungle crossing, where "one in three migrants die." Twice kidnapped in Mexico before finally reaching the U.S. border, he was immediately detained and placed in removal proceedings.This episode takes listeners deep into the complex, often misunderstood asylum process. We witness Barlow's fight against nearly impossible odds – a 90-minute hearing (reduced from four hours) to present a decade of persecution, technical legal barriers because his client crossed without an appointment, and the gut-wrenching realization that even proving all elements of asylum might not be enough as "asylum is completely discretionary."The emotional climax comes when Barlow's rarely successful motion for reconsideration is granted, securing his client's freedom and future. Beyond the legal victory, we glimpse the profound human impact as this new asylee sends his attorney a poignant photo of himself standing beneath an American flag on July 4th – a man who nearly died for the freedom to protest now finding refuge in a nation founded on that very principle.What makes this story so compelling is how it puts a human face on asylum policy while showcasing the life-changing impact of pro bono legal work. As Barlow reflects, "This mattered to this guy and it mattered to his wife and to his little kids... I saw myself and I saw my kids in him and his kids."Have you ever wondered what rights we take for granted? Listen now and consider what price others pay for freedoms we exercise daily without a second thought.

DLA Piper's Bob Alessi thought something was amiss when he was asked to review the forensic and scientific material in the initial mistrial of Karen Read, a Massachusetts woman accused of killing a police officer. He then used his background in STEM subjects, a semi-photographic memory and a dogged attention to social media to pick apart the state's case, resulting in an acquittal on her most serious charges.
