The awards will be held on 17 September 2015 at Constitution Hill, with Advocate Thuli Madonsela as the guest speaker.
There are seven categories for the 2015 awards, including categories for pro bono attorneys, advocates, corporations, law firms, legal NGOs and law clinic students who advance the right to representation contained in Section 34 of the South African Constitution.
LexisNexis South Africa is sponsoring the following categories:

"We also commend Probono.Org for the work it does in identifying, supporting and acknowledging these lawyers."
