Helping balance the scales of justice is a big part of our pioneering spirit—and one way we love to give back. Fenwick is proud to support asylum seekers and grateful to our partners at New York Legal Assistance Group and Bloomberg for the opportunity to do so. Wishing NYLAG and its clients continued strength, support, and success. #ProBono #LegalServices #CommunityImpact
🆕from PSPP: Navigating the legal system is challenging for anyone, and it’s even more daunting when you have to represent yourself. That’s why our Pro Se Plus Project (PSPP) is here to equip our new neighbors for their hearings. Yesterday, NYLAG and Fenwick & West in collaboration with Bloomberg hosted an asylum application clinic, helping unrepresented clients prepare detailed and comprehensive applications. This support gives asylum seekers a stronger chance of success, even without legal representation. Thank you, Fenwick & West and Bloomberg for partnering with us to double our impact with these critical legal services. #legalservices #wearenylag #pspp #proseplusproject #communitypartnership #communityimpact
