Report to Congress Available Online
Three years after its inception, the 9/11 Fund, under the superb leadership of Special Master Kenneth Feinberg, concluded its work, to universal approval.
This report to Congress commemorates and
tells the story of this unprecedented initiative.
Trial
Lawyers Care, the largest pro bono project in the history
of American jurisprudence, enabled hundreds upon hundreds
of families to better cope with the aftermath of that horrific
day.
Today our resolve is tested once again – by the worst natural disaster to hit our shores – and all Americans are coming together to help the victims of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. AAJ is using Trial Lawyers Care (TLC) as a vehicle for collecting and distributing aid to relief organizations in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama.
"Our goal is to get the most help where it's most needed most quickly," said TLC President Richard Bieder. "Since we started the Hurricane Katrina Relief Fund, trial lawyers have raised over $342,000, 100% of which is going directly to local relief efforts in Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama."
