Law-Tie is a platform aiming to connect students majoring in Law or with evidenced knowledge in legal education with pro-bono (i.e. free) lawyers to support youth (under 25) facing court injustices. Specifically, the law students would bring both legal support under the guidance of the pro-bono lawyer chosen, as well as emotional understanding given their age proximity with the youth we want to serve. Therefore, Law-Tie would allow youth’s pro-bono attorneys to successfully commit to the case by properly delegating work to the volunteering student, who would simultaneously receive an official LawTie record, shareable on LinkedIn or submitable to employers. 

Additionally, Law-Tie would provide free certified training courses for both students and underrepresented youth. Law-Tie also plans to become a truly recognized internship opportunity so that students, through their full-time commitment, can also gain academic credits. On the other hand, pro-bono lawyers can more easily take on the responsibility of following cases for free and increase not only the number of cases handled, but also their success, given the enthusiasm and passion of the volunteering students and early-career professionals. In this way, a win-win system was created: pro-bono lawyers can complete their cases, law students can earn valuable experience, and underrepresented youth can finally make clear their position in court so that their rights and will are fully respected.
