OVERVIEW
PBSC's University of Toronto and Osgoode Hall Chapters are currently recruiting Lawyer Supervisors to assist with the operation of two Toronto-based pro bono clinics that provide wills, powers of attorney for property and personal care, and reporting letters for low-income individuals.
These clinics will operate from September-April, with the goal of providing low income individuals with estate planning legal services and law students with the opportunity to offer client services in the estate planning field.
