Do Lawyers Do Pro Bono Work Anymore?
I need a few hours of consulting to help get thepeopleyes.org set up as a non-profit. If there are any lawyers out there with non-profit experience, and are willing to donate a little time and/or a few emails, I’d really appreciate it. Please comment here or get in touch with me at spcoon~at~seancoon~dot~org
(I’ll also gladly take advice from people with experience in non-profits)
UPDATE: I just spoke with a law firm here in Greensboro that might be able to assist me — pro-bono — on this project. Once our relationship is official, I’ll post the name of the firm and the gentleman who gave his valuable time on the phone today. Thanks for the tip, Sue!

Sean, talk to me privately. There’s a firm in town that does just this. (I’ll take it to email.) The disclaimer: they have to believe it’s a worthy effort, good for Greensboro, and will become “something” (i.e. isn’t just a lark).
Update: we think Sean has a lawyer who’ll do this for him. Just letting you know that there ARE plenty of good people (and lawyers ;) in Greensboro.
