Mission
Who more than litigators have the responsibility to secure the vitality of the American system of justice and equal justice for all?
The mission of the Section of Litigation is to dedicate its efforts to accomplishing these critical objectives while, at the same time, providing our members the resources and opportunities to help them be effective, competent and ethical advocates on behalf of their clients and in the eyes of the public.
The Immigration Justice Project
The Section of Litigation is cosponsoring an innovative pro bono immigration pilot project in San Diego, California. The Immigration Justice Project (IJP) aims to promote due process and access to justice at all levels of the immigration and appellate court system through the provision of high-quality pro bono legal services for those in immigration proceedings in San Diego.
