We are all about making an impact. A big impact for our clients.
I am really passionate about the role of pro-bono programs in law firms. As a law practice owner, I think it's incredibly important to take pro-bono and "low-bono" cases that align with your expertise.
GABRIELLE GUTHRIE
Pro Bono & Low Bono
Our recent work in 2024
In 2024 Guthrie Legal was pleased to support the Australian Conservation Foundation Inc (ACF) with legal advice on a range of matters in support of the general counsel function. ACF is Australia's leading independent national environmental non-governmental organisation. Its charitable work promotes urgent action on major environmental protection issues including climate, biodiversity, oceans and clean air.
Gabrielle provided legal support to the in-house team on a range of contentious and advisory matters for 3 months in 2024.
Waitlisting pro bono work in 2024/25
As a boutique law practice, we have limited resources. To make the most impact, we prioritise our pro bono and low bono support to clients and issues aligned to our expertise.
We are now waitlisting clients seeking legal support for the 2024/25 year. We are looking to support environmental groups with EES matters in Victoria. If you are an environmental group looking for legal support in an environmental effects or major project matter, please contact us by email to discuss our pro bono / low bono options.
Please note that unfortunately we cannot take urgent or emergency cases.
