Texas Equal Access To Justice Foundation — And I'm Proud Of One Of My Clients

This is National Pro Bono Week to celebrate attorneys’ providing free legal services to those in need.  The primary organization that helps fund pro bono services in Texas is the Texas Equal Access To Justice Foundation.   

Earlier this week, the Texas Equal Access To Justice Foundation hosted its annual Luncheon With The Texas Supreme Court.  At the luncheon, I was proud to help share the story of one of my clients.  Unlike me, she isn’t used to speaking to large groups so she was nervous about our portion of the luncheon.  But she did a wonderful job of getting up there and sharing how important pro bono legal services can be to those in need.  She really helped put a face on the statistics that were being bantered about the day.

We first told my client’s story in a video for Volunteer Legal Services.  That video is below:
