    From Our 2020 Co-Chairs I Am Honored to Serve As One of This Year’S Co-Chairs for the Campaign for Justice

    2019 CAMPAIGN FOR JUSTICE DEFENDERS OF JUSTICE FOR ALL From Our 2020 Co-Chairs I am honored to serve as one of this year’s Co-Chairs for the Campaign for Justice. Over the years, I have learned about the work of our Maine legal aid providers, not only through my service as a past trustee and president of the Maine Justice Foundation, but also as a volunteer for the Volunteer Lawyers’ Project. I have also made countless referrals to Pine Tree Legal Assistance and Legal Services for the Elderly through my own work. I have seen firsthand the important work these organizations do in my patch of the state, Downeast Maine. The providers’ work is not only a path to justice but, in some cases, a matter of life and death. This pandemic has only made the need for civil legal services that much more critical, not only for clients, but also for Maine’s court system. As I write, Maine’s family courts have all but shut down. What will happen when they reopen? The opportunity for a fair resolution only exists when all parties, whatever their economic circumstances, are able to obtain sound legal information and advice. A system which works for only some of us, works for none of us. As I write, I sit, isolated, in my Blue Hill office. I am fortunate that law is considered an essential service. I can work. I have a computer, reliable internet connection, and a telephone. When I go home it is to a warm house where I have plenty to eat and plenty to do.
