Columbus, Ohio
Milton A. Kramer Law Clinic students already made university history by securing a $1 million-plus verdict for homeowners fleeced by an unscrupulous repair firm. Now they’ve done it again by winning the right to argue before Ohio’ s Supreme Court. At issue: Can a judge award fees to attorneys working pro bono cases if the opposition fails to meet its discovery obligations?
"The process—from taking the pending case, to writing the petition to appeal, to receiving the news that the court accepted the case—has been incredible. I really believe in the impact this case could have: It would provide consistency and equality in the courtroom and hopefully encourage more attorneys to take on pro bono work."
