• Addressed the severe underfunding of the state court system, depletion of resources and the courts’ struggle to render their constitutional function while advocating for greater access to justice for countless Americans;
• Performed a thorough review of the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct and the U.S. system of lawyer regulation in the context of advances in technology and global legal practice developments and developed proposals for consideration by the House of Delegates during the ABA Annual Meeting;
• Achieving record attendance, including representation from all 50 states, at the annual ABA Day in Washington, where members met with members of Congress to advocate for increased funding for the Legal Services Corporation and other issues.

“We are proud to be a part of the ABA’s efforts, and pleased that our work is making an impact,” said Firm Chairman Beau Grenier.
