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.  We’ll be joined by D.C. Superior Court Judge Sanchez who will share her view from the bench.  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.  Registrants will receive a Zoom link in advance of the event.
