Farah & Farah Donation Helps Those Who Can’t Afford Legal Help | Business

Farah and Farah, one of North Florida’s largest law firms, has donated $6,000 to the Southern Legal Counsel (SLC) to help ensure those in need get legal representation.  The funds will be used to ensure continued operation of the SLC and to improve the adequacy of education in Florida through advocacy.

“The SLC is so important because it provides a voice to those who otherwise wouldn’t have one,” said attorney and founding partner Eddie Farah. “Farah & Farah is committed to helping ensure equal access to the justice system in all of the North Florida communities we serve.”

The SLC, which is headquartered in Gainesville, is a statewide non-profit law firm that assists those with public interest issues who would otherwise not have access to the justice system. This is done through litigation, policy advocacy, training and technical assistance.

One of Farah & Farah’s top priorities is supporting organizations in the communities it serves. In addition to the SLC, the firm supports the “I’m a STAR” program, the Community Rehabilitation Center and Jacksonville Area Legal Aid.

“Farah & Farah’s support of the SLC is just one example of the firm’s pledge to make sure everyone gets the due process they are entitled to,” said SLC Executive Director Jodi Siegel. “This donation will go a long way in supporting our work to help those in need.”
