The
attorneys of our Firm, aware of the impossibility for most of the
population to have access to the Venezuelan justice system, have
undertaken to continuously and increasingly cooperate with the
community through the provision of pro bono legal services. We
believe that as lawyers we are committed to ensure the recognition
and guarantee of civil rights, providing pro bono legal assistance
to those who have no means.
Convinced of the importance of this task, our Firm has established a
policy to provide pro bono legal counseling through the dedication
of a number of weekly hours by our attorneys to collaborate in this
undertaking. Said activity is conducted at the Don Bosco Social
Compound in Altamira, as well as in our offices, also to cooperate
with the outstanding work performed by the Salesian Ladies
Association at that and other assistance centers.
The Salesian Ladies Association is a non-profit organization formed
by Catholic women from various walks of life, who volunteer their
work in service of the needy, in an attempt by the organized
community to alleviate the problems caused by extreme poverty and
lack of social assistance. The activities of the Association are
primarily focused on the provision of medical assistance, job
training and home economics education. Within the framework of these
services, our firm provides pro bono legal services to the persons
who seek counsel at the various assistance centers coordinated by
the Salesian Ladies Association.
Our Firm is intent on making a priority of this commitment to the
underprivileged community in the hope of bringing justice closer to
those who need it the most.
