Pro Bono Barrister : BBA public forum to focus on basic divorce problems
When the Foundation Law Committee of the Brooklyn Bar holds a public forum titled "Divorce 101: The Process, Procedures and Options," it will, once again, demonstrate the capacity of the bar to reach out and help those in need on a pro bono basis.
While lawyers have historically been gratuitously criticized for charging exorbitant fees, this evening event, getting underway June 19, 6 p.m. at the BBA, 123 Remsen St., will be chock full of excellent advice, suggestions and even some helpful hints from the panel.
Foundation Law Committee Chair Fern Finkel announced that "All members of the public are invited to attend an informational lecture outlining the process of a typical contested divorce, including issues of support, discovery and custody."
