Romanucci & Blandin, LLC a Leader in Lawyer Effort To Support Legal Clinic at Chicago based Operation PUSH
Romanucci & Blandin and other attorneys, working with Margaret Benson, director of the Chicago Volunteer Legal Services (CVLS), recently hosted a breakfast meeting for volunteer lawyers who are interested in providing pro bono legal work at Operation PUSH in Chicago, established by Rev. Jesse Jackson.
At the event, Rev. Jackson told attorneys about the critical need for free legal counsel to low-income people in areas including divorce, child support and visitation, guardianship, adoption, special education, consumer fraud, landlord-tenant, bankruptcy and tort defense.
Benson, whose organization will provide training to attorneys, said that very little reporting will be required and that volunteer attorneys would be covered by CVLS malpractice insurance. For further information, contact Benson at 312-332-5542.
