As the United States remains engaged in military conflicts overseas, a growing population of current and former service members will be burdened with legal needs that may go unmet without the assistance of legal aid and pro bono attorneys. Join us for a dialogue on the kinds of legal issues are faced by our military veterans, servicemembers, and their families, and how can lawyers get involved to ensure access to justice for those who have served our nation.

Moderated by Kimbriell Kelly, editor, The Chicago Reporter.
