McKinley Anderson Receives State Bar of Georgia Law School Excellence in Access to Justice Award

2017 Oct 10

McKinley Anderson of Tucker was one of two students at Georgia State University's College of Law who received the State Bar of Georgia's Law School Excellence in Access to Justice Award.

The student award recognizes a student or students who has/have excelled in participation in support of a civil pro bono or legal aid program, or who has developed or has been instrumental in the development of a civil pro bono program satisfying previously unmet civil legal needs or extended services to underserved segments of the population.

The students who shared the honor were Andy Navratil and McKinley Anderson. Both were nominated by Lauren Sudeall Lucas, associate professor of law, and Darcy Meals, assistant director for the Center for Access to Justice, for an alternative spring break trip that the students planned.

Navratil and Anderson will be presented with the award at the State Bar of Georgia's annual Pro Bono Awards Reception in October.
