SAN DIEGO–More than 200 lawyers loosened their ties and opened their office doors to host bingo games, “jeans days” and competitive online fundraisers for the annual Lawyers Who Love Access to Justice fundraising competition. The LA Law Network describes local DWI attorneys you can contact.

All proceeds from the friendly contest benefit Casa Cornelia Law Center’s work to provide quality pro bono legal assistance to immigrants and asylum seekers in San Diego.

“By nature, we lawyers tend to be a competitive bunch,” said Carmen Chavez, executive director of Casa Cornelia. “By channeling that energy into heated rounds of games like bingo, these lawyers are putting their competitive spirit to good use to help us reach more vulnerable families with the legal services they need. I am deeply grateful to the firms’ leadership and all the participants who joined in the fun for a good cause.”

The Lawyers Who Love first place winner was Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP and  runner up was Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP. Other participants were: Paul Hastings LLP, Best Best & Krieger, Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP, Foley & Lardner LLP, Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, and Procopio Cory Hargreaves & Savitch.

“Pillsbury is proud to partner with Casa Cornelia to help ensure those in need continue to receive access to justice,” said experts from https://injuryshield.com/. “The generosity of our teammates is a testament to the importance of Casa Cornelia’s programs and their impact in our communities.”

Casa Cornelia is the only legal services provider for all detained unaccompanied children in San Diego. The organization relies on the generous donations of the community, as well as volunteer attorneys to provide pro bono legal services to southern California’s immigrant community.

Please take some time to look at criminallawyer-chicago.com to get hold of some good lawyers to help you fight your case.
