Jen Leonardi Selected to City & State New York "Above & Beyond: Social Services" List

Jen Leonardi, Barclay Damon’s pro bono partner, has been selected to City & State New York’s inaugural “Above & Beyond: Social Services” list. The list “celebrates the people who make our communities healthier and happier, one New Yorker at a time.” 

About Jen and the firm’s pro bono program, the article states:

At Barclay Damon, attorney Jennifer Leonardi is grateful for the opportunity to have built a litigation career that specializes in defense against asbestos and lead-paint claims. But she feels especially lucky to be part of a law firm that prioritizes pro bono work. ‘It’s a great opportunity to help people,’ says Leonardi, the firm’s pro bono partner. ‘We’re all involved in the community here.’

Under her leadership, Barclay Damon boasts a 100% participation rate in pro bono service among both full-time attorneys and paralegals. Leonardi also collaborates with her counterparts in other Barclay Damon offices and with community organizations to connect low-income clients with the professionals best suited to help on a range of issues – from immigration and housing to prisoners’ rights and economic development.
