Thank you to the Asian American Law Fund of New York (AALFNY), Asian Americans for Equality (AAFE), and AABANY’s Pro Bono & Community Service (PBCS) Committee, as well as our dedicated volunteers, for supporting our Manhattan Pro Bono Clinic on August 19, 2026.
Our volunteer attorneys and law students met with 21 clients to provide critical guidance on various legal issues, including housing, public benefits, family law, torts, immigration, trusts and estates, employment discrimination, and civil litigation.
One happy client remarked, “Francis took the time to listen to my situation and explained everything clearly.”
