Can I find a pro bono lawyer for a divorce in Texas?
Pro bono lawyers typically refers to counsel provided to criminal defendants at the expense of the state. The key word is criminal. Low cost or free lawyer for family law matters like divorce may be available. There are two main sources. As Gregg Holman notes, try Legal Aid. The courthouse has a list of the various legal ad agencies which are available in that county. You need to make phone calls and you will be asked to fill out financial disclosure forms. The other source are the law schools legal clinics. These are supervised by fully licensed professors but the work done by specially provisionally licensed law students. Google law schools near you, check each schools website for legal clinics ( they will be clearly identified as to which areas each clinic will take) and start calling. Again, be prepared to fill out financial disclosure forms.
