Good work by this Atlanta firm & kudos for a paralegal:
"Kilpatrick Stockton LLP announces the firm’s third annual pro bono awards to recognize outstanding contributions to the firm’s pro bono efforts. The awards highlight a second record-breaking year for the firm, with more than 27,500 pro bono hours in 2005, a value of $8.2 million.
“’Pro bono is an essential element of the firm,’ said Debbie Segal, Kilpatrick Stockton Pro Bono Partner. ‘These awards recognize our attorneys’ strong commitment to helping those in our surrounding communities who otherwise would have very limited access to representation in the legal system. Their dedication has made a positive impact on many lives.’

You go, Nancy!
