Atty. Eric D. Correira was recently invited to join the Leadership Council for the WilmerHale Legal Services Center for Harvard Law School. Over the last several years, Atty. Correira has informally advised clinic students representing clients in the areas of estate planning and elder law. The Legal Services Center is an invaluable resource for Massachusetts residents, providing legal assistance in a number of practice areas. At the same time, the Clinic gives students real world experience as part of their law school education. The Legal Services Center assists over 1,000 clients per year, and includes a Safety Net Project, Estate Planning Project, Family Justice Clinic, Tax Litigation Clinic, LGBTQ+ Advocacy Clinic, Housing Law Clinic, Consumer Protection Clinic, and Veterans Law Clinic.

From the Leadership Council website: “LSC’s Leadership Council brings together leaders from the legal profession, business, academia, human services, and other fields. Council members serve as ambassadors for LSC, working in concert and contributing their knowledge and expertise to provide strategic advice in support of our mission. Our Leadership Council engages with the LSC community, builds connections with like-minded leaders, and contributes to our effort to pursue justice for vulnerable community members while training and inspiring the next generation of publicly minded lawyers.”
