Jones Foster is proud to have served as a sponsor of the Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County’s Justice for All Celebration, which took place this year at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts and celebrated 75 years of the organization’s dedication to providing qualified and low-income residents and nonprofits in Palm Beach County equal access to our judicial system.
Jones Foster trust & estate litigation shareholder Peter A. Sachs is actively involved in the organization, serving on its board of directors to promote Legal Aid’s mission and support its diverse programming.
The Legal Aid Society was established in 1949 to offer civil legal advice, representation, and education to the disadvantaged of Palm Beach County to protect their safety, enhance their opportunities and living conditions, and promote self-sufficiency. Its services extend beyond legal advice offering a wide range of programs to address many of life’s most basic needs: a safe home, enough food to eat, a quality education, and protection against exploitation and discrimination, according to its website.
