CONTINUING LEGAL EDUCATION
May 26, 2020
This month’s free Legal Lunchbox webinar on May 26 will help legal professionals who want to work with low-income veterans to better understand the unique challenges facing this client community, effectively address VA benefit denials, and learn from the lived experiences of WSBA members who have served in the armed forces.
According to the 2015 Washington State Civil Legal Needs Study Update, low-income military service members and veterans experience high levels of civil legal issues such as denial of veteran’s disability benefits, denial of educational or other benefits and services, denial of service-related physical or mental health care, or problems related to discharge status. Pro bono legal professionals can help fill gaps in legal services to this community.
