Join us for a special fireside chat with D.C. Court of Appeals Chief Judge Anna Blackburne-Rigsby and D.C. Superior Court Chief Judge Milton C. Lee, Jr. as we kick off our D.C. Pro Bono Week 2025 celebration! D.C. Bar President Sadina Montani will moderate the engaging conversation.

You won’t want to miss this chance to hear directly from the Chief Judges about the most pressing pro bono needs across the D.C. Courts and how we all can play a part in filling the gaps in access to justice for D.C. residents. We hope you’ll leave the event feeling (more) energized to get involved in local pro bono!

Please arrive at 8:30 a.m. for refreshments and engaging activities to share your pro bono spirit with others before we start the fireside chat.

Pro Bono Goes Local is free to attend, but advance registration is required.

Invite your colleagues and friends!

This event is best suited for lawyers working in any type of practice setting, as well as retired lawyers, law students, and non-lawyer professionals.
