The first thing you need to understand is that "pro bono" is not a magic incantaction. Just because you learned (almost) two words of latin does not change what you are asking. Have the honesty to say what you mean - you want someone to volunteer to do work for you for free. At least if you put it that way you'll get points for being honest.
Most attorneys cannot afford to perform free work for people who call their office or contact them through the internet. Just like most other working people, most attorneys cannot afford to routinely do work that they don't get paid for.
If you are looking for charity, you should start by contacting Colorado Legal Services. They can screen you for ability to pay and connect you with an attorney who is supported by grants or tax money or refer you to Metro Volunteer Lawyers where lawyers go who are looking to handle volunteer cases. You also might look for an attorney who is willing to help you out with a payment plan or sliding scale if you have difficulty paying for the work you are asking for. However, it is not reasonable to believe that you will be able to walk into any regular business - even a lawyer's business - and receive services for nothing.
