Champions of Justice Quotes
"Pro bono work in the private bar is a way to pay tribute to the heroic advocates at Legal Aid of North Carolina, the North Carolina Justice Center, and all the other public interest agencies that ensure that the justice system works for everyone. Every year these lawyers collectively handle tens of thousands of cases on a shoestring budget in matters with the highest stakes, like safety, shelter, family, and basic civil rights. Although I am grateful and especially proud to receive an award bearing Mr. Thorp's name, I honor my public interest brethren whose selfless commitment to our profession and to the disadvantaged among us inspires me to do my small part as well."
