Skadden Fellowship Foundation Director Resigns, Urges Legal Community to Foster Pro Bono Courage

The legal community is responding to the recent resignation of the executive director of the Skadden Fellowship Foundation. This key leader, who guided the foundation that finances public interest legal work, announced her departure Wednesday. The decision came two months after the firm reached an agreement with President Donald Trump to prevent an executive order that might have disrupted its operations. In her parting words, she encouraged legal professionals to demonstrate ‘courage’ in their pro bono efforts. The full details of the development can be accessed in the original article from Law360.
