WASHINGTON, D.C. (July 25) – Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton announced today that nine attorneys in the firm’s Washington, D.C. office received recognition on the 2022 Capital Pro Bono Honor Roll. The honor, which recognizes the contributions of those D.C. Bar members and others authorized to perform legal work who donated 50 hours or more of pro bono service during the last calendar year, is awarded by D.C. Courts, in partnership with the D.C. Access to Justice Commission and the D.C. Bar Pro Bono Center.

Since 2011, the D.C. Courts have recognized attorneys who have contributed 50 hours or more of pro bono work to those who cannot afford legal counsel. Recently, this pro bono representation has become even more important as thousands of District of Columbia residents confront the stresses of ongoing economic challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic, a growing housing crisis, and reduced benefits and services due to diminished public resources.

Stephen Donahoe and Suzanne Walker received High Honor Roll recognition for contributing more than 100 hours of pro bono services.
