Mary N. Gadd works as the Senior Pro Bono Coordinator for LASCO. Mary began her career as a law clerk at LASCO (then Legal Aid Society of Columbus) during law school. Most recently, she served as Clerk of Court for the City of Hilliard, and also spent several years as a staff attorney and magistrate with the Franklin County Probate Court. Mary previously worked in higher education at Capital University Law School and The Ohio State University College of Medicine, and also managed her own solo law practice. Mary's experience with pro bono started as a volunteer attorney with LASCO after graduating from law school. She later became the first pro bono coordinator at Capital University Law School and also served as Chair of the Columbus Bar Association Pro Bono Committee. 

"Having begun my career at LASCO, I am happy to be returning to this important work in legal services full-time in order to connect as many attorneys throughout Ohio with pro bono opportunities."
