PILI cultivates a lifelong commitment to public interest law and pro bono service within the Illinois legal community to expand the availability of legal services for people, families and communities in need.
Our Vision
PILI envisions a legal community with a deeply rooted culture of service, where law students, lawyers and legal professionals at all stages of their careers engage in public interest law or pro bono work, and remain committed to addressing the unmet legal needs of the poor and underrepresented.
PILI is pleased to fund seven Law Student Interns this spring, who will each work 200 hours part-time during the semester providing legal services to or on behalf of low-income clients at seven legal service organizations in Chicago. More »
