Blank Rome’s Comisky Cup Presented to Washington, D.C., Office
Blank Rome LLP is pleased to announce that the firm’s Comisky Cup was presented to Blank Rome’s Washington, D.C., office.
In 2023, the pro bono work completed in Washington, D.C., spanned a wide variety of areas. This service included assisting veterans in military discharge upgrade cases, representing clients in asylum and immigration matters, helping transgender clients with legal name changes, drafting wills for low-income senior citizens, preventing evictions, working with small businesses and nonprofit organizations, and more.
“I am incredibly proud of our office’s commitment to pro bono service and dedication to giving back to the Washington metropolitan area,” said Shawn M. Wright, co-chair of the D.C. office.
Named in honor of Marvin Comisky, Blank Rome’s first managing partner and a lifelong supporter of pro bono, the Comisky Cup is awarded annually to the office with the best pro bono performance.
“The Washington, D.C., office is honored to receive this recognition and will continue to honor Marvin’s passion for pro bono service by looking for opportunities to expand our commitment to and investment in the communities that comprise the greater Washington area,” said James D.
