TKO for Pro Bono
October 17, 2011
The PBEye sends special congratulations to Dewey Bozella on winning his first and only professional boxing match on Saturday. As we’ve reported on this blog previously, Bozella was an amateur boxer when he as wrongfully convicted of murder and spent 26 years in prison. He was released in 2008 thanks to the hard work of attorneys at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale & Dorr LLP*, which took his case pro bono. Incidentally, Bozella will be our special guest at the 2011 PBI Annual Dinner in New York. Bozella’s story is truly inspiring and reminds us of the importance of pro bono in closing
