Teams from area law firms and judicial chambers were invited to compete in the bracket-style cornhole tournament to see who would be crowned the Cornhole Classic Champion. MBLB’s team of associates Natalie Morris and Katie Brigulio were cheered on by associate Tyffani Lauve, and law clerks Carl Davis, III, and Aaron Broussard. While MBLB did not take home the trophy, a good time was had for a great cause!

About the Pro Bono Project

The Pro Bono Project exists to ensure that all underserved citizens of six local Louisiana parishes can find lawyers willing to donate time and civil legal experience to help them resolve civil legal problems. These issues range from family law matters like divorces, custody agreements, name changes, and adoptions; to property questions related to successions and estate planning, proof of title, contractor litigation, and consumer complaints; to debt issues, and much more.

Since its founding in 1986, The Pro Bono Project opened doors for many Louisianans in need of legal representation. Last year’s snapshot underscores how important The Pro Bono Project is to our community.
