The Power of Pro Bono - Justice and the Fight Against the Death Penalty

30/04/2025 06:36:00

This event on 12 June by Amicus and Arthur Cox at the Law Society has been postponed due to the tragic passing of speaker and death row exoneree Sunny Jacobs.

Our deepest condolences are with Sunny’s family, friends, and those she worked so closely with at Amicus.

The Law Society remains committed to supporting this important event, and to highlighting the important impact of pro bono work on justice for people around the world. We will work with Arthur Cox and Amicus to arrange another event later in the year and will continue to remember Sunny and the legacy she leaves behind.
