Law firms need to get involved in the communities they serve for a multitude of reasons. Community advocacy isn’t just about feeling good, it brings benefits to you and your whole team. ➡️ You can strengthen your skillset. Whether it’s pro bono representation, or giving free legal advice at a volunteer community event, people learn by doing. The more you practice, the more you learn. ➡️ You can grow your network. When you attend a workshop or community event with other lawyers present, it’s a chance to meet and learn about other areas of law. Once you’re connected, stay in touch and one day they might refer you when looking for an attorney in your field. ➡️ Involving your firm in the community, gets your name out there. Talk to people and make sure they know who you are, and when they’re in a legal bind, you’ll be the first they call. #CommunityAdvocacy #VolunteerLawyers

Save the date!📅 One of the ways that I help to support consumers is to aid them in finding the solutions through self-teaching and or community engagement activism opportunities. Like such upcoming event to be held in Dayton, OH hosted by MCD and Sinclair Community College for the annual Fatherhood Initiative. In the words of Maury Polvige- “The TEST determines that, You Are The Father”! Fathers should know; 1. You do have rights! Don’t give up ⬆️ 2. Women do abuse their power and influence. 3. You are not INCAPABLE of conquering the impossible to raise your child and support your family. 4. Your probability might be low but it should not stop you from trying. 5. You have the freedom of choice to choose if you will be apart of the problem or the solution. As long as you are trying your child will grow up having concrete evidence to know what “working towards the advantage” looks like….oppose to the societal current trend marketed in [National Headlines: “The deadbeat/ sperm donor” who may or may not have known]. Anyone can carry a LIE but can they model the TRUTH! Nevertheless, he has an opportunity to make a socially responsible decision, which most respectively is apart of his role in civic engagement. Walking away because you’re scared is an option but do understand that it can be a dangerous one, that which comes to haunt and taunt you later in life. You’ll clearly see it when one day you look up and around, to find no one standing there.
