A cause lawyer, also known as a public interest lawyer or social lawyer, is a lawyer dedicated to the usage of law for the promotion of social change to address a cause. Cause lawyering is commonly described as a practice of "lawyering for the good" or using law to empower members of the weaker layers of society. It may or may not be performed pro bono. Cause lawyering is frequently practiced by individual lawyers or lawyers employed by associations that aim to supply a public service to complement state-provided legal aid.

  • Der Begriff cause lawyering kommt aus den US-amerikanischen Sozialwissenschaften. Wesentlich geprägt wurde es von Austin Sarat und Stuart Scheingold. In der Literatur zu cause lawyering überwiegen mikrosoziologische Studien, die nach Motivationen, politischen Ansichten und Karrieren von Rechtsanwälten fragen. Christas Boukalas versteht unter cause lawyering die Auseinandersetzung von Anwälten mit sozialen und politischen Prozessen. Daniel Kremers bezeichnet mit cause lawyering die gezielte öffentliche Bearbeitung einer juristisch relevanten Angelegenheit (cause) durch Rechtsanwälte begleitend zum Rechtsbeistand für die von dieser Angelegenheit betroffenen Personen.
