The Greensboro Bar Association’s 2019 Pro Bono Award was presented to Lincoln Financial Group at the GBA lunch membership meeting on January 16, 2020 at Greensboro Country Club. Over the past year, the attorneys at Lincoln Financial prepared 24 wills, powers of attorney, and health care powers of attorney for Legal Aid clients.  In addition, they participated in Legal Aid’s Lawyer on the Line program in which they agree to speak with a client for an hour to provide legal advice.  Their work over the past year continues their longstanding commitment to pro bono work.  In the past, members of Lincoln’s legal team sponsored a CLE program on expunctions and handled dozens expunctions for the local Legal Aid office.  The Greensboro Bar Association is pleased to recognize their service.
