The ABA Standing Committee on Pro Bono and Public Service is implementing a national interactive pro bono website based on Tennessee’s OnlineTNJustice. The decision came at a meeting late last week in Austin. Former TBA President and Baker Donelson lawyer George T. “Buck” Lewis said, “We got this far because of a great team effort and we now need help from Tennessee attorneys with the work of funding the national site and signing up the remaining states.” Tennessee Supreme Court Justice Connie Clark also praised the move saying, “It is so exciting to see Tennessee ideas ... be embraced coast to coast.” OnlineTNJustice is a joint project of the TBA, the Tennessee Alliance for Legal Services and Baker Donelson.
