Chief Justice Thomas G. Saylor has written a letter to all 70,000 Pennsylvania-admitted attorneys, recounting the success of the state’s pro bono legal assistance program and requesting all attorneys to consider contributing time and financial support to Pennsylvanians in need of pro bono legal services.
The Chief Justice wrote:
“As I have done in the past, I join with the president of the Pennsylvania Bar Association, Anne John, in calling upon each of Pennsylvania’s nearly 70,000 attorneys to provide pro bono service through direct representation of the poor and additional financial support of the Commonwealth’s legal aid programs.”
