Jones Foster is proud to have served as a sponsor of the Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County’s live virtual fundraiser in support of the organization’s work to provide equal access to our judicial system to qualified and low-income residents and non-profits in Palm Beach County.

The event, Lawyers on the Front Lines: Caring for Palm Beach County During the COVID Crisis, was live-streamed on Facebook Live and YouTube and featured musical performances, videos, raffles, and an online auction.

Established in 1949, the Legal Aid Society of Palm Beach County has grown into one of the largest legal service programs in Florida. Legal Aid is committed to providing high-quality civil legal advice, representation, and education to the disadvantaged of Palm Beach County in order to protect their personal safety, enhance their opportunities and living conditions and promote self-sufficiency.

Litigation Shareholder and Board Member, Peter A. Sachs, currently serves on Legal Aid’s Board of Directors. Peter focuses his practice on the representation of individuals and institutions in the prosecution and defense of complex trust and estate, guardianship, and commercial litigation matters. Peter is a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, a Florida Bar Board Certified Civil Trial and Business Litigation specialist and is certified by the National Board of Trial Advocacy.
