Legal Question in Federal Tort Claims in Florida
Pro Bono ( what incentive? )
Why would an attorney or firm, especially a large firm choose to do pro bono work?
Unless a case is a high profile (marketing homerun) how can the client assure they will get what a paying client might expect?
I chose the word ''expect'' after getting and email from a pro bono attorney who advised me to ''manage my expectations''.

1) ask the firm,--everyone is differnt
2) if you trust the firm, then you trust the, if you don't, there's nothing an attorney here can say to change that
3) managing your expectations, means you're probably being unrealistic about something
Re: Pro Bono ( what incentive? )
They may feel a civic obligation to do so. You probably don't get exactly what a paying customer does, butthat does not mean that they are not properly representing you. Obviously, as conflicts with calendars and the like come up, your case and not the paying one may have to wait longer than you would wait if you were paying.
Can't complain about the price though!
Why don't you just ask the lawyer what he meant by the comment?
