REFERRAL FORM: Refer a new case to the Project*

* You must be logged onto the website with your email address and personal password to access this link to the Case Referral System. If you have not already signed up with the Military Pro Bono Project, click on Attorney Registration on the home page to register.

After logged onto the website, use the password assigned to your legal assistance office (not your personal password) for this referral form. If you do not have a password for your current office, email Project staff at militaryprobono@americanbar.org. After submitting the case referral form, you will be taken to a website that confirms the submission. The referral is then automatically routed to a designated supervising military attorney who screens referred cases. Once reviewed and approved, the Project will notify you and will begin searching for a volunteer attorney.

**Are you having trouble entering information into the referral form on the website? While filling out the online form, if you have any technical problems (e.g., browser or copy/paste issues, etc.), you have the option of uploading this form into the online case referral system. This document should act as a supplement, not a replacement, to information submitted online.
