Ask-A-Lawyer Day 2025 is Huge Success!

What a remarkable achievement and fantastic way to honor Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service! With an impressive turnout of 68 sign-ins, it was heartwarming to see the community come together at our ASK-A-LAWYER Day, with some individuals seeking assistance for multiple legal challenges. 

Thanks to the dedicated efforts of over 30 remarkable attorneys from the Greensboro Bar Association, we were able to assist over 75 individuals with their legal issues.  

Overall, more members of the public sought answers to questions about Wills & Estates (21), Family Law (9), Real Property (8), Landlord-Tenant Law (6), and Employment Law (5).  But there were also multiple questions about Medical Malpractice, Elder Care Law, Disability and Medical Benefits, Education Law, Intentional Torts, Criminal Law and Expungement, and Collections/Consumer Law.

“We were humming along close to full capacity for several hours,” reported Pro Bono Committee Co-Chair Jon Wall.  “A special thanks to our media partners WGHP-Fox8 and WFMY-2 for helping us get the word out, along with Triad City Beat, WNAA Radio and Yes! Weekly,” he continued.  Co-Chair Theodora Vaporis continued: “The Greensboro Chamber of Commerce volunteered their facility, and its staff volunteered their time to help make this event successful.  Of course, our biggest thanks goes out to the GBA volunteer attorneys!”  

A huge thank you to all the volunteer attorneys for your hard work and commitment to making a difference in our community! Your contributions are truly invaluable, and together, we are creating a brighter future for those in need.
