Mississippi Capital City Challenge Expungement Clinic

The Mississippi Volunteer Lawyers Project, which for nearly 40 years has provided free legal assistance to more than 40,000 residents in need, is partnering with Adams and Reese, Bradley Arant Boult Cummings, Baker Donelson, and Butler Snow, for a Capital City Challenge Expungement Clinic.

The clinic will be held Friday, Oct. 27, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Mississippi e-Center at Jackson State University (1230 Raymond Rd.)

The expungement clinic assists individuals representing themselves. Clinic participants receive legal advice and court documents prepared by licensed Mississippi attorneys. Click here for online registration, or call 601-960-9577 for more information. Those who register for the event must bring a driver’s license or state issued identification and copies of court documents.

Adams and Reese ranks among the top law firms in the nation for pro bono service, included in the 2023 Pro Bono Scorecard, published by The American Lawyer. Adams and Reese has ranked on the list since 2012.

Caring Adams and Reese Employees (CA&RE) is the firm’s pro bono program that assists our nearly 300 attorneys and advisors to connect with bar associations, nonprofit and legal aid organizations in each of our 20 cities, to represent people who cannot afford an attorney.

“Pro bono work offers opportunities for lawyers to give back to our communities by making needed legal services available to those who would not otherwise have access,” said Laura Rose, Partner in our Jackson office and the firm’s current Pro Bono Committee Chair. “In addition, pro bono work offers opportunities for skill-building and collaboration with other lawyers.”
