Virginia Trial Lawyers Conference

I am spending the weekend at the Virginia Trial Lawyers conference in Williamsburg.  I had the pleasure of listening to Simone Campbell, the sister on the bus, a Catholic nun who had traveled the country promoting social justice.  She spoke passionately about the needs of our society and the need to maintain our social safety net.  In her travels she had the opportunity to meet with so many people who were working hard to make a living on minimum wage.  She was a strong proponent of trial lawyers devoting their efforts to making our communities stronger and protecting our client’s rights.
