Military Pro Bono Project

Who We Are

The ABA Military Pro Bono Project—managed by the ABA Standing Committee on Legal Assistance for Military Personnel (LAMP)—accepts case referrals from military attorneys on behalf of junior-enlisted, active-duty military personnel facing civil legal issues, and it works to place these cases with pro bono attorneys. The Project is also the platform for Operation Stand-By, through which military attorneys and other pro bono attorneys may seek attorney-to-attorney guidance.

Volunteer

The ABA Military Pro Bono Project offers attorneys two ways to help military families: (1) Sign up to stay updated about pro bono case opportunities to provide representation to military members; and (2) Register with Operation Stand-By to receive calls or emails from military attorneys or other pro bono attorneys in need of attorney-to-attorney advice.
