NIJC’s Commitment to Pro Bono Attorneys NIJC understands the majority of pro bono attorneys working with NIJC have limited immigration law experience. [...] Attorneys who accept an NIJC case for pro bono representation can expect that NIJC will provide the support and assistance necessary to capably represent NIJC clients. [...] Transfer representation of the case to another attorney in the firm if the attorney is compelled to withdraw representation for any reason other than a conflict of interest or client misconduct. [...] Inform NIJC if new attorneys from the firm take over the case or are added to the legal team. [...] NIJC will provide pro bono attorneys with deadlines for the review of documents at the time of pro bono placement.
