Community Involvement

Recipients of the 2005 "Community Volunteer Organization of the Year" Sponsored by the Montgomery County Corporate Volunteer Council

Lerch, Early and Brewer was a proud recipient of the 2005 "Volunteer Organization of the Year" Award, presented by the Montgomery County Corporate Volunteer Council. 

The award is in recognition of organizations who have made extraordinary efforts or contributions to community service and volunteer efforts across the county. Montgomery County Executive Douglas M. Duncan was on-hand to make remarks, the keynote address was made by Robert Woodson Sr., and the event was moderated by local news anchor Kathleen Matthews. Robby Brewer, pictured here with Ms. Matthews and Montgomery County Councilmember Nancy Floreen, accepted the award on behalf of the firm. 

Overview
The attorneys at Lerch, Early and Brewer understand that practicing law involves more than the day-to-day activities of representing their clients. It also requires a commitment to the community in which they practice, and an effort to provide public service and legal assistance to those who cannot afford it. Through our pro bono and community service efforts, our attorneys strive for the improvement of the community, administration of justice and our profession, by providing free or reduced-fee legal services to those who often need effective legal representation the most. We encourage attorneys to devote their time in pursuit of these goals. 

Some examples of organizations that we represent, and whose clients we represent, in pro bono matters include:

-Adventist Community Services
-Montgomery County Adult Protective Services
-Archdiocesan Legal Network of Catholic Charities
-CASA of Maryland
-Jewish Legal Network

In addition to pro bono legal work, our lawyers are active in a wide variety of community and charitable endeavors, working with and for many civic, community, cultural, governmental, educational and medical organizations that seek to improve our community and the lives of all of its citizens. We believe that by participating in these kinds of groups, we are not only able to help improve the quality of life in our community, but also to improve the working environment in our firm. Some of the organizations our attorneys are involved with include:

-Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce
-Bethesda Kiwanis
-Bethesda Arts Imagination Stage
-Wheaton (Md.) Redevelopment Steering Committee
-Law School for the Public
-Mental Health Association
