Each year, the State Bar of Georgia Access to Justice committee recognizes special achievement in pro bono service with the Pro Bono Awards. The Law School level award was created by the committee and the State Bar of Georgia Young Lawyers Division (YLD) for law students currently enrolled in or graduating from an accredited Georgia law school. The award recognizes excellence in addressing the civil legal needs of the community.

Emory Law's Volunteer Clinic for Veterans has received the 2014 Law School Group Excellence in Access to Justice award.
