Legal Aid of Nebraska presented the Omaha office of Husch Blackwell with its 2020 Law Firm Partner Equal Justice Award, citing the office’s significant pro bono assistance on a wide variety of projects and initiatives.
In honoring the firm with the award, Legal Aid of Nebraska recognized Husch Blackwell’s “contributions to building a fairer and better legal profession and, through its many efforts and initiatives, being a model of private law firm commitment to equal justice for all in Nebraska.”
“This award is particularly meaningful this year, as the focus of the event and the award is recognizing the significant contributions that we have made in lessening the devastating impact that the pandemic has had on our essential workers, our communities of color across Nebraska, and those in our State who already struggle to get access to legal services,” said Marnie Jensen, Omaha Office Managing Partner.
The award was presented during a virtual luncheon and award ceremony October 8.
