From 2005 to 2015 this blog presented news items and resources relating to trial advocacy and the legal system, with a focus on Washington State. It was developed to support the Trial Advocacy Program at the University of Washington School of Law, but broadened to include appellate practice, the courts, access to justice, and related topics. It is no longer active.

Disaster Lawyers
People who need legal help as a result of the floods last month and who cannot afford it can use the services of volunteer lawyers from the Washington State Bar Association. Flood-related problems can include insurance disputes, landlord-tenant issues, and dealing with contractors for repairs. There is a national network of lawyers who volunteer in the wake of disasters, coordinated by FEMA and the Young Lawyers Division of the ABA. WSBA Press Release, Dec. 21, 2006.
