by CBJC Staff April 24, 2020
“The City Bar Justice Center, our non-profit, legal-services affiliate, is among the leaders in the response to this crisis: providing free, remote legal assistance to New York City frontline health care workers in preparing life-planning documents so that they have peace of mind while risking their lives for us; launching a pro bono remote legal clinic to help New York City’s small businesses access the federal government’s COVID-19 stimulus package and other programs; and ramping up its Legal Hotline, already the busiest in New York, to handle the expected flood of inquiries related to the coronavirus.”
