As we close out 2009 and plan for 2010, let's keep in mind the lawyers in Georgia who are committed to ensuring that our justice system is available to low-income Georgians.
Get to know a local legal aid or public interest lawyer!  Celebrate the work of these great professionals by taking a legal aid or public interest lawyer to lunch in January. 

Use lunch to build a bridge between your law firm and the local legal services or public interest program.   If you already know your local legal aid or public interest lawyers, take one to lunch to catch up on news and your work.

If you would like to join in and get to know a local legal aid or public interest lawyer in Georgia, and you need a "matchmaker" for your lunch, send an e-mail expressing your interest to probono@gabar.org.

This January, a different kind of lunch and learn!
