We Are Hurting.
The scenes are sickeningly familiar. The killings of Breonna Taylor, Ahmaud Arbery, George Floyd, and so many others. The routine harassment and indignities. The failures to live up to human principles of justice and democracy. As lawyers and legal professionals, we have a heightened duty. We took an oath – and with it comes professional responsibility to stand up and fight for racial and social justice.
What Now?
We’re focusing on helping to prepare for the return to work and looking at the opportunities and risks around the corner in this new market. You’ll find a continually evolving set of state- and country-focused resources, including a collection of state-by-state orders and a return-to-work checklist.
