Who the pro bono work is for
Kareem Abdo is dedicated to serving the legal needs of the under-privileged. If you or your organization needs legal services, the office invites you to contact it and inquire about its pro bono services.
The practice is litigation. He is a litigation attorney admitted in New York State Courts, the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York and the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. An inquiry is a conversation about the legal need in front of you.
He is the sole attorney of the office, so the person who reads your inquiry is the lawyer who would handle the matter.

Time and money given
Kareem Abdo has spent many hours serving his pro bono clients. He has also donated his time and money to charitable organizations.
The same attorney who handles paying clients in the New York courts is the one who handles this work. He also runs what he calls a no frills business, with low rates, and the pro bono services sit alongside that practice.
For a person or an organization with limited means, that history is worth knowing before you call. He has been lead counsel for plaintiffs and for defendants against some of the largest law firms in New York City and the country, and he has handled matters against the City of New York.
Financial status and a reduced rate
Please note that the Law Office of Kareem E. Abdo will need to verify the financial status of individual and organizational pro bono prospective clients. That applies whether the person asking is an individual or an organization.
The office may also, at its discretion, offer a reduced rate. No figure is published, and none is promised in advance. This page is general information only and is not a promise that the office will take any particular matter.
