Congratulations to Adèle Akers, a member of our employment group, on completing Advocate’s Pro Bono Pledge after completing over 25 hours of Pro Bono work in the past year.

In a world where equal access to justice is a huge challenge, Adele’s commitment to offering her expertise to those who can’t afford legal representation remains vital.
