It Takes a Village: The Impact of Pro Bono Family Law Representation
Hosted by Children’s Law Center and D.C. Bar Pro Bono Center.
Please join us for a lively panel discussion on the need for pro bono representation in cases impacting families. This panel will discuss challenges individuals face in securing representation and dispel myths about who our clients are. Panelists will share their experiences representing parents, third-party caregivers, and the best interests of children.
In addition to child custody matters, we’ll discuss family preservation and safety planning, immigrant family preparedness matters, and representing respondents in civil protection matters. Come learn why access to justice in family law means everyone has a lawyer. Attendees will receive information about how they can get involved, ranging from limited scope to extended representation.
This event is suited for attorneys interested in representing families through pro bono. Spread the word and join the conversation on social media using #DCProBono26.
