Dear Ohio Lawyer,

Ohio attorneys continue to rise to the challenges facing underserved Ohioans and have volunteered their time to address Ohioans’ unmet legal needs. The Supreme Court of Ohio and the Ohio Access to Justice Foundation are seeking valuable information to capture the response to these needs as well as contributions to charitable legal organizations in Ohio.

Regardless of the extent of your pro bono activity or the amount of charitable contributions, the Supreme Court of Ohio asks that you take the time to complete the short survey. The survey can be completed in approximately 10 minutes. This information enables the Court to recognize the value that Ohio’s attorneys create by providing pro bono legal services to persons of limited means as well as the actual amount of contributions lawyers make to legal charitable organizations.

The survey can be taken by individual attorneys or a single firm representative on behalf of all of the firm’s attorneys and should take no more than 10 minutes to complete. 

To participate in the voluntary survey, please click on the following link or copy and paste the link in a web browser: https://www.supremecourt.ohio.gov/attorneys/pro-bono-survey/. Please note that the survey will only be available through March 1, 2024.

If you have any questions regarding pro bono reporting, please email Sophia Chang at justiceinaction@ohiojusticefoundation.org. If you would like more information regarding pro bono opportunities, please visit https://www.ohiojusticefoundation.org/lawyers/pro-bono/pro-bono-opportunities-guide/.

Thank you for your participation.

The Supreme Court of Ohio
