What is the typical lawyers fee on a pro bono case in the state of Tennessee?
"Pro Bono" is short for "pro bono publico", which means "for the public good". It is usually used to describe a lawyer who takes a case for free - so the typical lawyer's fee on a pro bono case is $0. Some lawyers will take a case at a reduced rate (technically, that's not "pro bono") but lawyers fees vary a lot depending on location and type of case, so there is no "typical" lawyer's fee in Tennessee. Most lawyers who do not charge a fee are actually employed by a Legal Aid or Legal Services office (for civil cases), or are assigned counsel under the Indigent Defense Program or work for a Public Defender office (for criminal and some family cases). Links to these offices are at the related link below.
