If I volunteer for a legal advice clinic or take a case from a civil legal aid organization, will I be covered by their malpractice insurance, or will I have to provide my own coverage?

If I volunteer for a legal advice clinic or take a case from a civil legal aid organization, will I be covered by their malpractice insurance, or will I have to provide my own coverage?

Most civil legal aid organizations in Indiana that use pro bono attorneys will provide malpractice coverage for those attorneys. Some of these polices provide first-dollar defense for their volunteers; other polices provide coverage that is secondary to any malpractice coverage the attorney may have through their law firm.
