Named to the 2026 Pro Bono Recognition Roster, honoring significant pro bono legal assistance to individuals, families and communities in need in Illinois
Pro Bono
Our firm is committed to serving indigent pro bono clients and providing assistance to organizations that support the most vulnerable members of our community. Our pro bono program provides lawyers with opportunities to get involved in different subject areas and types of matters, from single-day pro bono clinics to litigation and transactional work. We encourage all our attorneys to engage in the practice of pro bono, and they report that it brings significant professional development experiences, such as taking depositions, negotiating with opposing counsel, arguing motions and appeals, and even going to trial.

It’s been an honor to lead the firm’s work on behalf of disabled veterans. Leveraging the talents of many K&S lawyers, we have obtained life-changing results for veterans and their families, who have given so much to this country.

A key aspect of our pro bono program is providing legal assistance to non-profit organizations that serve the most vulnerable members of our communities. I have been able to leverage my skills to help local non-profits obtain critical financing.

I’ve enjoyed working on a range of pro bono matters. In the past couple of years, I have focused on homelessness prevention and improving housing conditions, which are important issues in Los Angeles, the city where I practice and live.
