Gunster shareholder Asghar Syed was recently featured in the Jacksonville Business Journal and the Florida Times-Union for his role in launching a ‘Low Bono’ legal services initiative at the firm, with the latter article also syndicated by MSN. A partnership between Gunster and the Florida Nonprofit Alliance, Low Bono is designed to reduce legal costs and expand access to legal resources for nonprofits across Florida.
The coverage highlights how the Low Bono initiative provides Florida Nonprofit Alliance members with access to Gunster attorneys at reduced rates while also making educational materials and legal resources available to nonprofits statewide, regardless of membership. Through the program, Gunster has developed a variety of free resources, including webinars, compliance checklists, self-assessment tools, and forms. Syed emphasized the importance of proactive legal guidance, noting that addressing legal issues early can help nonprofits avoid more significant and costly challenges down the road.
Since its launch in 2025, Gunster attorneys have provided legal counsel to the Florida Nonprofit Alliance and 29 of its member organizations, contributing approximately 727 hours of service across 14 Florida cities.
