Private Bar

In 2001, Mintz Levin became the first firm to represent Boston Medical Center patient-families in an array of civil legal contexts. Since then, over twenty other law firms and in-house legal departments have joined MLP | Boston's pro bono partner network, which was formally launched by the Boston Bar Association in 2003 (and was known until 2008 as the Healthy Kids Legal Network). Contributions by these volunteers include: accepting individual case referrals; "adopting" a health clinic and staffing a weekly legal clinic there; establishing a "loaned" or "referred" associate program (we thank WilmerHale, Ropes & Gray, Mintz Levin, and Nutter for including MLP | Boston in their respective programs); conducting research on ethics and confidentiality issues arising in the MLP model; and engaging in systemic advocacy in partnership with clinicians.

• Bingham McCutchen LLP
