Adjective
- (law) (US, of legal work) at a discounted rate, especially to under-represented communities
Usage notes
- Sometimes "low bono" appears to be used as an adverb, as in the sentence "I was working this case low bono." or "I am working low bono;" but this is probably a shortening of "working on a low bono basis," rather than a truly adverbial use.
Origin
Back-formation from pro bono.
