An Emory University law school student, J. Martin Bunt, has received a national pro bono award for starting a free legal clinic for veterans. Bunt, a 3L, received the annual Pro Bono Publico Award from the Public Services Jobs Directory, an initiative of the National Association for Legal Career Professionals (NALP) for his work creating the Volunteer Clinic for Veterans (VCV) at Emory Law School.
Bunt hatched the idea last year and the clinic was up and running by February. “When they come home, I believe it is our turn to serve them. I will continue to dedicate my life to VCV, knowing that I am serving those who sacrificed so much to serve me,” he said in a statement.
