Law Week 2010 a True Public Service
The value of the law and lawyers in the lives of students and citizens was truly evident last week. Hundreds of people participated in the Bar Association's and YLD's annual citywide celebration of Law Week, April 26-May 3.
Volunteer attorneys offered free legal advice to nearly 100 visitors of five Philadelphia Free Library branches at "Legal Advice Live!," visited a range of city schools to talk to students about the law during "Lawyer in the Classroom," joined with judges to present mock trials based on popular fairytales to 100s of young children at City Hall, and guided nearly 100 high school seniors on tours of the city's courtrooms as part of "Lawyer for a Day," which included speeches from Bar Association Chancellor-Elect Rudolph Garcia, Chancellor Scott Cooper and Bob Kelly of the Philadelphia Flyers' Stanley Cup-winning teams of the 1970s.
See pictures of the events at both the YLD and Bar Association Facebook pages. Thanks to all who made Law Week 2010 a success!
