Zalkind Law Attorneys Participate in Walk to the Hill to Support Funding for Legal Services
On January 30, 2020, a group of Zalkind Law attorneys participated in the 21st annual Walk to the Hill to lobby the state legislature for increased funding for civil legal aid in FY21. While last year legal aid lawyers in Massachusetts were able to help 88,000 people with legal issues including health care, immigration, domestic violence, and housing, they had to turn away more than 100,000 eligible people who needed legal help. Zalkind Law attorneys visited their legislators’ offices to convey the importance of increasing funding so that more people in Massachusetts can get the legal representation they need.
