San Antonio Legal Services Association (SALSA) assists attornies who want to provide pro bono service, including meeting the State Bar of Texas' recommendation that every attorney perform 50 hours of pro bono service a year.
SALSA provides training resources, mentorship, and coverage under SALSA’s Professional Liability policy. Attornies can give back within their area of expertise or take on a limited-service matter in a new area of the law.
Volunteer for a clinic. Provide limited legal advice or assistance at an isolated pro bono event. (This requires limited or no follow-on assistance.)
Participate in a program. Provide limited scope representation in a subject matter area that has ample training resources and mentor oversight.
Take a case. Provide extended representation services in your area of expertise. Check out SALSA’s available cases and express interest in a particular case.

* Are you an attorney who is licensed and in good standing in another state or has an inactive Texas bar license? Learn more about how you can do pro bono in Texas through the NOVA Program.
Please note that volunteers will be contacted on an as-needed basis to confirm availability for cases as they come into the program.
