Describe your firm's philosophy on pro bono service.

Our firm views pro bono work as central to our identities as lawyers. Not only does the firm view pro bono work as a core professional responsibility, but our attorneys are passionate about serving our communities. We afford our attorneys the freedom to pursue the areas of pro bono representation that most interest and inspire them, and consequently the firm is engaged in a wide array of subject matters.

Of the big cases your firm recently worked on, in People v. Pursley you represented a man wrongly convicted of murder who spent 23 years in prison—as you noted, the first case in the country to allow a prisoner new ballistics testing under a Post-Conviction Testing Act. Tell us more about the case and how you reached the outcome.
