This chapter develops a vision d’ensemble, or intertwined vision, of what is known conventionally as lawyers’ pro bono practice, an increasingly major field of research at a time largely seen as one in which the legal profession undergoes – and will undergo – its greatest transformations. It offers some insights and snapshots on pro bono as a phenomenon operating and spreading in legal practice, including in and through corporate law firms. At the same time, it approaches pro bono through an anthropological lens, as a concept related to the assumption that a structured legal institution exists in society. As such, while this chapter sheds some light on the origins and features of pro bono in France, it aims to provide a narrative and rationale for pro bono beyond its borders.
