Goodell DeVries was honored to accept the Defender of Justice Award from Maryland Legal Aid’s Equal Justice Council (EJC). The award was presented at the EJC’s 25th Annual Equal Justice Awards Breakfast on May 21, 2024.
The Defender of Justice honor celebrates the firm’s longstanding support of the organization through monetary and pro bono contributions. Partner Tom Waxter has served on the EJC’s board since 2014.
The EJC is composed of leading partners from Maryland’s top law firms and other prominent members of the Maryland Bar and corporate community.
