Giving Back To the Community


We believe in giving back to the community that supports us. We do this in four ways: by offering free informational seminars to the community, through involvement in community service organizations, by offering pro bono legal assistance, and through charitable giving.

Seminars

Neal & Wright LLC offers periodic informational seminars on a variety of legal topics. We hold all seminars at our office on Saturday mornings from 10-12, and we provide free coffee and donuts. No RSVP is required, but it is nice to hear from those who plan to attend so we can make sure to have enough java & Krispy Kreme!

Here is a list of upcoming seminars:

• November 15, 2008: I Don’t Have a Lot of Money, So Why Bother With Estate Planning? [Back by Popular Demand]

Please note that dates are tentative and subject to change. Check back periodically for more information and new seminar dates. Future seminar topics may include:

• What Do I Do If I’m an Executor? A Probate Primer
• Anatomy of a Commercial Real Estate Deal
• So You Want to Adopt…

If you have an idea for a seminar topic or would like additional information about a seminar listed above, please contact Sherry at sherry@nealandwright.com.
