After a wait of nearly efforts in 2011 ...... 10 two years, Scott’s client received the decision that the initial denial had been reversed. The client will be getting monthly benefits from the VA (adjusted to include his three dependent children), backdated to March 2009, the date of his initial filing. He is getting the maximum benefit allowed for his injuries. “The client was very appreciative for all the help he received on his case,” says Scott. “Our next step is to help him pursue a separate claim for benefits based on combat-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).”

Scott took the case in part because of a personal interest in helping veterans; his brother served in the Gulf War in the early 1990s. Scott says that Nixon Peabody’s work for veterans serves a meaningful purpose because “a lot of

veterans don’t know the right way to go about filing a disability claim, or pursuing an appeal following a denial of a benefits claim.” Scott says retired partner Al Jordan, a veteran himself, served as a helpful resource in this case, and he encourages others to get involved.

VA reverses prior denial of benefits for PTSD Providence Litigation counsel Steven Richard learned that a veteran he has been representing on a pro bono basis for the past four years will finally receive the benefits he has been seeking from the Veterans Administration. The VA reversed a prior denial of benefits and granted the client a 100% rating for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Steve began representing the veteran in 2008, while his claim was pending before a VA Travel Board. The Travel Judge who heard the case denied the claim, finding that the veteran’s emotional difficulties were not tied to his service in the Navy and Marines during the 1990s. With assistance and guidance from retired partner Al Jordan, Steve successfully appealed the Travel Judge’s ruling to the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans’ Claims, which reversed the adverse ruling and remanded the veteran’s claim back to the VA for further proceedings.

On remand, Steve helped the veteran build a stronger factual record showing that our client has dealt with lingering emotional issues for two decades arising from his heroic efforts during a helicopter rescue mission in the Pacific Ocean and his exposure to horrific conditions during a tour of duty in Africa. Steve worked with the veteran’s counselors to submit additional evidence showing a clear service connection that caused the veteran’s emotional conditions.

The VA issued a revised report that accepted the supplemental evidence and awarded a full grant of the benefit sought on appeal. The veteran’s family is thrilled with the result and thanked the firm for standing by them for the past four years. “Handling VA claims requires persistence and patience, but it’s worth it when the client gets a just result,” says Steve, “My client and his family hope that his success will inspire others to volunteer to help veterans who find themselves in similar situations.”

Associate earns successful result for unaccompanied minor referred by KIND Los Angeles associate Kelly Kress earned another successful result for a child referred from KIND (Kids in Need of Defense), an organization that refers unaccompanied minors seeking legal status in the U.S. to the firm.

Her client “Marcus” (an alias) had lived with his aunt in Southern California since being abandoned by his mother and father as an infant and passed around by other relatives in his native country. To defend Marcus in his pending immigration removal proceedings, Kelly sought to obtain Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS) for Marcus since he was unlikely to win asylum.

When it came time to seek the predicate order from a California probate court adjudging the child “abandoned” by his parents and appointing his aunt as legal guardian—the first requirements in the multi-step SIJS process—diligent investigative efforts were needed to obtain consent from his parents and all second-degree relatives, many of whom were still in the child’s native country. The biggest challenge came from the child’s father, who had also relocated to the U.S., but did not take custody of his son despite claiming Marcus as a dependent on his tax return. The father opposed his son’s attempts to obtain SIJS status and produced false records to the probate court. Fortunately, the court eventually saw through his falsehoods. The father begrudgingly gave his consent to appoint the aunt as his legal guardian after many attempts to convince him that his son’s best interests were more important than his own shame and tax consequences.

Kelly obtained the necessary guardianship and predicate orders, and then applied to the immigration court for a SIJS finding. The immigration court eventually agreed and granted SIJS status to Marcus. Kelly immediately applied for adjustment of residency status for her client and moved to dismiss the removal proceedings pending against him. The motion was granted without prejudice, pending a decision on his application for adjustment of residency status.

After providing testimony and submitting to interviews and medical and psychological examinations, the two-year process finally came to a close this month when Marcus was granted legal permanent resident status in the United States. His aunt couldn’t be happier with the expanded opportunities this provides for Marcus, who is already an accomplished musician and singer who performs regularly throughout Southern California.

“Through my work with KIND and helping minors like Marcus, I’ve gained valuable exposure to different cultures, court systems, judges, and government agencies. I’ve met some very inspiring and resilient people who have survived much in their young lives,” says Kelly. “There is nothing more rewarding than the tears of joy and gratitude from my clients when I tell them the good, and often completely life-changing, news that they can stay in the United States.”

Microfinance work brings clean energy products to Ghana Nixon Peabody has helped Impact Energies (IE) bring clean energy products, such as solar lamps and cookstoves, to indigent people in Ghana. IE’s innovative factory-to-village supply chain brings these products to poor Ghanaians and assists with product financing by making microloans through local microfinance affiliates to enable Ghanaians to purchase the products on an installment basis.

We have assisted IE in all aspects of U.S. legal representation since inception, including formation, capital raising, immigration issues, employment concerns, and drafting the documents to execute these mechanisms. We structured the conditional sale and loan that enables the products to reach the end users, and put together the related

documentation that addresses cutting-edge concerns, such as hedging the currency risk and documenting ownership of carbon emission reductions from the project. Through our pro bono work, we have helped pave the way for IE to bring its much-needed services to the poor.

Thank you to Public Company Transactions associates Dan McAvoy and Richa Naujoks and Global Finance partner Bill O’Brien who have been spearheading our efforts for IE. Because the nature of our work for IE includes many challenges not seen in traditional microfinance transactions, it has required the assistance of attorneys across many of our practices. Special thanks to Energy & Environmental partner Deborah DeMasi, Health Services partner Allan Cohen, Global Tax counsel Sarah Nelson, Global Finance associates Talis Seja and Deirdre Nash, Health Services associate Carly Eisenberg, and Global Business & Transactions associate Susannah Keagle for their contributions.

Nixon Peabody continues to work on several microfinance-related pro bono transactions for eight microfinance clients, which help play a role in the securing of micro-loans for poor individuals in the developing world.

Wednesday is ‘NP Day’ at courthouse tenant advocacy program in Rochester Wednesday continues to be Nixon Peabody day at Rochester City Court as Private Clients partner Tom Farace and other Rochester office attorneys continue their regular involvement in a pro bono tenant advocacy project.

The Legal Aid Society (LAS) has partnered with the Volunteer Legal Services Project of Monroe County (VLSP) on an “Attorney for the Morning” program in Rochester City Court to handle landlord-tenant disputes for many years. Tom serves on the board of LAS, and several years ago started Nixon Peabody’s pro bono participation in the program. Rich Rochford, Greg Nearpass, Meghan Schubmehl, Barry Carrigan, Darren Miller, and Tom are among the attorneys who take turns each Wednesday morning, joining LAS representatives at the courthouse where they represent tenants facing eviction.

“These tenants are in a world of hurt because they just got an eviction notice,” explains Tom, who still coordinates NP’s involvement. “They’re going in front of a judge, they have a balance due on their rent, and they don’t have any money. Without representation, it’s likely that they will have to be out of the property in 72 hours and have a judgment recorded against them.”

The NP attorneys work with their tenant clients for a two-hour window each Wednesday; longer cases that involve habitability issues and other questions of fact are taken on by LAS attorneys, so there is no carryover week-to-week. The tenants benefit by having their pleadings reviewed and by having attorneys who can negotiate settlements with their landlords for them. The odds are stacked

against the tenants, however, and, in most cases, a “win” is defined by a settlement that either provides the tenant with at least one more day before vacating the property and/or reduces the judgment for unpaid rent by at least $1.

In the summer, the Rochester office’s summer associates also get training through the program and an opportunity, through limited practice orders, to handle their own cases. The exposure gives them a unique chance for courtroom experience and interaction with judges even before they become lawyers. It’s a beneficial situation for everyone involved. The tenants get top-notch representation, the program gets weekly help from a trusted firm, and NP continues its commitment to being a regular pro bono contributor in the community.

Environmental technical specialists bring unique value to pro bono engagements Nixon Peabody’s environmental technical specialists have been an integral part of the firm since the 1970s, working side-by-side with attorneys spanning practices across all departments. From assisting on compliance issues to crafting technical solutions to environmental, health, and safety issues that fit within the applicable regulatory and statutory structures, they have provided—and continue to provide—added value to our clients. Our environmental technical specialists bring that singular value to pro bono clients, as well.

Rochester Professional Specialists Elaine Enfonde, Senior Environmental Scientist, and Rick Marx, Senior Environmental Engineer, along with legal support from partner Jean McCreary, continue to provide pro bono environmental due diligence support to Flower City Habitat for Humanity. They have performed 30 Phase I Environmental Site Assessments and NEPA Reviews and are in the process of completing seven more for a total of 37 during the past three years. In addition to the great service they have provided to the community, the work has also provided good visibility for the firm with the City of Rochester, which sells the building lots to Habitat for Humanity. Since 1984, Flower City Habitat for Humanity has built or renovated 180 homes, and is one of the largest Habitat affiliates in the Northeastern U.S. Currently, they build around 10 homes per year.

For the last several years Professional Specialist Libby Ford, Senior Environmental Health Engineer, has provided environmental services for CIRCLE, Inc. She helped the nonprofit operate their camp’s water and wastewater systems in compliance with state and federal requirements. CIRCLE is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) educational organization that offers programs that promote a holistic view of self in relationship to community and environment as well as a sustainable future for humankind, all our relations, and the Earth.

These are just some of the examples of how our environmental technical specialists provide outstanding pro bono service to nonprofit organizations supported by the firm.

Pro bono divorce work more than just a learning experience for associate Through her pro bono work at Nixon Peabody, Penny Dentinger, a Global Business & Transactions associate in Rochester, has been fulfilling a personal goal that she’s held since law school when she became interested in domestic relations law. For the past few years, Penny has been taking on divorce cases through the Volunteer Legal Services Project of Monroe County (VLSP). Not only have the cases provided a unique learning experience, they have also given Penny a chance to help women in abusive relationships.

Handling divorce cases as a corporate lawyer already comes with a learning curve, and that curve got even steeper when New York State amended its divorce laws in October 2010 to allow a no-fault divorce based on an “irretrievable breakdown of marriage,” as long as the breakdown lasted for at least six months. Prior to the change, parties seeking a divorce had to fit into one of the allotted categories (adultery, abuse, abandonment, etc.). While the new law came with a host of new filing requirements, Penny has been able to handle the changes in stride, thanks to the support she receives from Mary Beth Conway, a staff attorney at VLSP, and retired NP partner Dwight Collin.

Although none of the five pro bono divorce cases that Penny has worked on involved significant marital property or child custody issues, they have posed challenges and nearly all have involved some allegation of abuse. It’s sometimes a judgment call whether to file a no-fault divorce or pursue the divorce based on abuse, since the ultimate goal is getting the client out of the abusive relationship as soon as possible.

In one case, for example, Penny and her client decided to file for a no-fault divorce since it would be more expedient than proving the pattern of abuse in the relationship. The couple had also been living apart for more than a year. In a more recent case, however, where Penny’s client was almost raped by her abusive, alcoholic husband, Penny and her client pursued a divorce based on abuse since the allegations were more easily founded, and because the couple had not been apart for more than six months. Because Penny was able to get her client’s divorce finalized quickly this past December, the client was thrilled to be able to renew her driver’s license with her maiden name.

“This is my way of trying to help break the cycle of abuse,” says Penny. “The divorces give these women a second chance.”

Firm awards bonuses for exceptional pro bono service As Andrew Glincher announced in his April 2, 2012, e-mail, “Giving back to clients in need through pro bono service, and supporting our communities, are core tenets at Nixon Peabody.” He added the firm will be giving pro bono bonuses to a number of individuals who “advanced our firm values by providing exceptional pro bono service and met or exceeded traditional firm and client expectations in 2011.”

The attorneys and paralegals who were selected to receive the pro bono bonus met criteria that included, among other factors, rendering more than 60 pro bono hours, performing legal work that achieved important results for indigent clients or addressed a strong need in the community, encouraging others’ involvement in pro bono through leadership and teamwork, and impacting the firm positively through pro bono involvement. The bonus recipients will be notified individually during their performance reviews.

These pro bono bonuses demonstrate the firm’s strong support of our pro bono initiative and its appreciation of our attorneys who give back to their communities. The number of individuals who were under consideration for the pro bono bonus shows how deeply pro bono is ingrained in our culture.

Nixon Peabody earns several pro bono awards

Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) presents Allegiance Award to Nixon Peabody Kids in Need of Defense (KIND), an organization that helps unaccompanied children navigate the U.S. immigration process, has selected Nixon Peabody to receive its 2012 Allegiance Award. According to KIND: “This award is in recognition of Nixon Peabody’s tremendous commitment to KIND, including pro bono hours and other innovative contributions that have helped to advance our mission and service to unaccompanied immigrant and refugee children.” Washington, DC, Office Managing Partner Jeff Lesk will accept the award at a ceremony on May 2.

In 2011, Nixon Peabody spent 1,819 attorney hours working for KIND clients. Over the past two years, 46 Nixon Peabody lawyers have worked on cases on behalf of 28 clients referred by KIND, including asylum cases involving a 15-year-old girl from Guatemala who was kidnapped and assaulted by gang members, an 18-year-old Guatemalan boy who was beaten and threatened by gang members, and a young girl from Guatemala who lived without any adults and suffered a group sexual assault. We also helped a young boy from El Salvador win asylum in a precedent- setting gang-based asylum matter (featured in Am Law Daily and on law.com), and we helped three

Bill Kelly to receive Excellence in Pro Bono Award Boston partner Bill Kelly was chosen to receive the Excellence in Pro Bono Award by Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly and the Massachusetts Bar Association (MBA). Bill will receive the award on May 10, 2012, at the Lawyers Weekly/MBA 2012 Excellence in the Law Event, which recognizes “the very best of the legal profession.”

Bill was honored for his work on behalf of AIDS Action Committee of Massachusetts, Inc., New England’s first and largest AIDS service organization. Bill received AIDS Action’s own “Commitment to Action” award last year in honor of his longstanding contributions to the fight against AIDS and for his pro bono work for AIDS Action on two recent mergers that expanded AIDS Action’s reach.

NP honored by Legal Counsel for the Elderly in DC Nixon Peabody received an award from Legal Counsel for the Elderly (LCE) in recognition of the pro bono services we’ve rendered as part of our formal pro bono relationship with LCE, an AARP-affiliated organization that provides free legal services to the elderly in Washington, DC. The firm received a glass plaque at the LCE Volunteers Award Luncheon on April 24, where our attorneys were thanked for greatly reducing LCE’s wait list for wills and powers of attorney. Affordable Housing partner Patrice Harris Talbott, who was on hand to accept the award, also received a certificate for her individual contributions.

Under Nixon Peabody’s formal pro bono relationship with LCE, the firm has agreed to take referrals, on a regular basis, of elderly clients who need wills and/or various powers of attorney prepared for them. We have also agreed to conduct benefits check-ups for individuals, which involves walking the individual through an online survey that will determine which benefits the individual may be eligible for.

New York partner honored by the Legal Aid Society The Legal Aid Society awarded New York City partner Bill Lang with its Pro Bono Publico award in honor of his pro bono efforts that helped a small business owner get his business up and running. Bill, who works with our Real Estate group, reviewed a commercial lease for his client, and then reviewed a new commercial lease when a new landlord bought the building. Bill was nominated for the award by an attorney with the Community Development Project of The Legal Aid Society.

Bill and the other awardees were celebrated at an awards ceremony in November 2011, where New York Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman presided over the event. This is the fifth time Bill has been honored by The Legal Aid Society; he also received the Pro Bono Publico award in 2004, 2005,

2008, and 2009. Last year, Bill also received the City Bar Justice Center’s 2011 Jeremy G. Epstein award for Pro Bono services.

Anita Pelletier receives 2012 Hanna S. Cohn Pro Bono Award Congratulations to Rochester Global Tax counsel Anita Pelletier, who was named the 2012 Hanna S. Cohn Pro Bono Award recipient by the Women’s Bar Association of the State of New York (WBASNY). The Hanna S. Cohn Pro Bono Award is given to a WBASNY member “for contributions to the provision of pro bono legal services to the community in which the member practices, beyond the recipient’s employment responsibilities.” Anita will receive the award at the WBASNY convention in May.

Anita has established herself as a stand-out attorney in the field of nonprofit law. Through her pro bono work, she has helped to form countless 501(c)(3) organizations, worked with many nonprofits to achieve tax exempt status, and advised nonprofits and their boards on myriad issues. In addition to handling her own pro bono matters, Anita encourages others to do pro bono work as a member of our firmwide Pro Bono Committee, on which she has served since its formation in 2004.

Center for Gender & Refugee Studies recognizes Nixon Peabody’s pro bono asylum efforts The Center for Gender & Refugee Studies (CGRS) honored Nixon Peabody for our pro bono asylum efforts on behalf of women. CGRS is “the nation’s leading organization supporting women asylum-seekers fleeing gender related harm.”

Based at the University of California Hastings College of the Law, CGRS saluted NP at its annual reception on April 10, which celebrated the Bay Area’s strong tradition of pro bono asylum work. NP attorneys Cameron Cloar, Carolyn Collins, Kristin Jamberdino, Christopher Ogden, Amy Pham, Paul Schrier, and Stacey Slater were also recognized individually by the organization.

Nixon Peabody regularly handles asylum cases that are referred from organizations like Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) and the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights, which partner law firms with low-income individuals who have fled persecution in their home countries. CGRS offers support on these cases, and our attorneys have often counted on the valuable resources, including sample briefs and mentoring, that CGRS provides.

NP lawyers receive Empire State Counsel® designation Congratulations to the 54 Nixon Peabody attorneys who were honored as Empire State Counsel® by the New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) in recognition of their excellent pro bono service in 2011.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the firm’s pro bono efforts in 2011 Nixon Peabody’s pro bono numbers hit an all-time high in 2011, averaging 56 pro bono hours per attorney—double the average hours from just a few years ago in 2007. There was an increased effort across the firm. In a big jump from prior years, 60% percent of our attorneys rendered more than 20 pro bono hours. Of course, pro bono at Nixon Peabody has always been a firmwide effort, with tremendous contributions from partners and associates, as well as paralegals, professional specialists, and staff. Everyone should be commended for their efforts, which have made a real, positive difference in the lives of our pro bono clients

“In 2011, 176 attorneys and 19 paralegals and professional specialists rendered more than 60 pro bono hours. This is a fantastic result and one we should all be proud of.” said Pro Bono Partner Stacey Slater. Over the next few months, many of our U.S. offices will be organizing events to celebrate our pro bono accomplishments. We will be distributing Peabody Awards to everyone who performed more than 100 hours of pro bono, and Certificates of Recognition to those who donated more than 60 hours.

In honor of the Manchester office, which had the highest number of pro bono hours per lawyer for the second year in a row—with over 77 pro bono hours per attorney with 100% attorney participation—the firm has donated $2,500 to the New Hampshire Campaign for Legal Services (CLS). CLS raises funds to help meet the legal aid needs of low-income and elderly New Hampshire residents through its support of three legal aid organizations: the Legal Advice and Referral Center, the New Hampshire Pro Bono Referral Program, and New Hampshire Legal Assistance.

Congratulations also to the San Francisco office, whose Nixon Peabody’s pro bono numbers pro bono hours were nearly as high as those in reach all-time high Manchester.
