The North Carolina Pro Bono Resource Center inducted 39 McGuireWoods lawyers into its 2020 North Carolina Pro Bono Honor Society. According to the PBRC, these lawyers each provided 50 or more hours of pro bono legal services in 2020, thus meeting the aspirational threshold set by the North Carolina Rules of Professional Conduct.
The full list of 2020 inductees, announced May 10, 2021, included 589 lawyers who, as a group, provided nearly 55,000 hours of pro bono legal services to North Carolinians living in poverty. Each member receives a certificate of recognition from the Supreme Court of North Carolina.
“Many North Carolina attorneys recognized the needs brought about by COVID-19 and provided pro bono legal services to help ensure that ‘justice shall be administered without favor, denial, or delay,’ as is mandated by our state’s Constitution,” said North Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Paul Newby in a message to the attorneys. “The Supreme Court of North Carolina looks forward to celebrating the sincere efforts of North Carolina lawyers in pursuit of equal justice for all.”
