Every attorney wants to make a difference.
Sometimes it just takes the right organization to LINC-up with.
LINC, the Legal Information Network for Cancer, is seeking attorneys to help cancer patients deal with the business side of cancer by providing pro bono services in the following areas: insurance appeals, social security disability appeals, drafting of wills, advance medical directives and powers of attorney, employment, bankruptcy and child custody.
Attorneys in all areas of practice are welcome; attorneys with expertise in insurance and estate planning are particularly needed.

Thank you again to the Awards Committee members for their time and effort in making the 2000 MRWBA Women of Achievement Award luncheon a success.
Please advise me or any of the committee members of any suggestions or comments concerning the Award and the lunch program. Your thoughts will be taken into consideration for 2001.
Finally, if you think there is a MRWBA member who is deserving of an award advertised by another bar association or community program, please contact myself or the awards committee. We can work together to compile a nomination package.
