Why doesn't it? Could it be a retainer or a reduced rate or even a CFA?

Robittybob1 Adam Tudor (on my earlier link) stated it was a standard retainer so unlikely to be free. IMO.

I think I agree with you especially where you say: "Nothing pro bono here".

Exactly. Just because the client doesn't pay it doesn't mean the services were provided pro bono.

Because that isn’t what Pro Bono means.

That's what I was thinking too.  It seems wrong to do pro bono and charge at the same time.
