TBA Law Blog


Posted by: Kate Prince on Sep 15, 2022

The TBA Young Lawyers Division is partnering with the Tennessee Supreme Court Access to Justice Initiative, Legal Aid Society of Middle Tennessee and the Cumberlands, Legal Aid of East Tennessee, Belmont Law and others to offer a virtual debt relief clinic to Tennessee citizens. In celebration of Celebrate Pro Bono Month in October, the next clinic will be held on Oct. 8 from 9 to 11 a.m. CDT. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Charles Walker will begin the clinic with an overview about bankruptcy. Clinic clients then will be paired with volunteer attorneys in break-out Zoom rooms for counsel and advice about debt relief options, with referral for pro bono representation for those who qualify for chapter 7 bankruptcy. If you are able to serve on October 8 from 9 to 11 CDT, please sign up here. For questions, please contact Alix Rogers at Alexandra.rogers@belmont.edu.
