Halloran Sage received the Pro Bono Award from the Hartford County Bar Association at the 2019 Law Day Ceremony held at Hartford Superior Court. Connecticut Veterans Legal Center (CVLC) and Statewide Legal Services of Connecticut nominated the firm in recognition of a longstanding and demonstrated pro bono commitment to veterans facing homelessness, described in this way:

Nominated for their dedication to provide direct representation on eviction defense. As an institution, they are a firm where everyone provides pro bono representation – partners and associates. For more than eight years, they have been providing pro bono direct representation to low-income veterans and others facing homelessness. Their attorneys are very skilled, achieve positive results for clients, and clients speak highly of their work.

Attorneys Gregory Gagne, Rachel Fain, and Oscar Suarez received the award on behalf of the firm. Rachel and Oscar coordinate the firm’s pro bono efforts, and Greg Gagne, a veteran himself, is on the board of CVLC. They’re pictured here with Liam Brennan, Executive Director of CVLC (far left).
