- Comment: Lawyers as social entrepreneurs
- Author(s)
- Liffman, Michael
- Abstract
- While they may be unusual in wanting to do it in Latin, lawyers are in good company in their recognition of the virtues of pro bono work. Perhaps, however, the particular nature of their profession, and its stress on their relationships with their clients, have caused lawyers to struggle a little to go beyond that relationship in order to see the larger societal context which is leading many occupations to give renewed attention to motivations that go beyond the narrowly financial.
