The Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association (TTLA) and Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein have created the “Trial Lawyers’ Community Relief Fund” through The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee to assist tornado victims. TTLA President Matt Hardin, who grew up in hard-hit Putnam County, said Tennesseans “always pull together and help our neighbors in difficult times.” Mark Chalos, TTLA vice president and managing partner of Lieff Cabraser’s Nashville office said, “As trial lawyers, we have dedicated our careers to helping our neighbors in times of need. This fund will enable us to get relief quickly to those Tennesseans who need it the most.” Contributions to the fund can be made online or mailed to The Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee, P.O. Box 440225, Nashville, TN 37244. Please note the name of the fund in the memo line. Read more in a press release from the groups.
