One of the benefits of working at O’Neil Cannon is the firm’s strong commitment to public service. The Firm encourages its attorneys to give back to our community. I am honored to serve on the Board of The Wisconsin Law Foundation. The Wisconsin Law Foundation is the charitable arm of the State Bar of Wisconsin. The mission statement for the organization notes that “the Wisconsin Law Foundation is a charitable and educational organization that serves to promote public understanding of the law, improvement of the administration of justice and other law-related public service through funding of innovative and creative programs that improve the vision of the American justice system.” The Wisconsin Law Foundation accomplishes this mission through its numerous programs.
Two of the programs supported by the Wisconsin Law Foundation are the Wisconsin State High School Mock Trial Tournament and the Belle Case LaFollette Awards. The mock trial program teaches high school students about the court system and develops students’ public speaking and research skills. The Belle Case LaFollette Award recognizes three recent law school graduates who represent under-served populations such as those of modest means and those who live in rural areas. These awards support the Wisconsin Law Foundation’s mission of law-related public service. You can visit the State Bar of Wisconsin website to learn more about the many programs supported by the Wisconsin Law Foundation.
