In a profession that is better known for "suiting up," it's not often that Dallas lawyers get to cut loose. But on Aug. 20, seven rock bands – whose members are all Dallas-area lawyers and judges – will take to the Granada Theater stage for Law Jam 3. Staged every other year, the concert benefits the Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program. "Although music is a hobby for these bands, they take it very seriously. This is not a night of passable karaoke. These groups will put on an exceptional night of music," says Dallas Bar Association President Barry Sorrels. "Law Jam is about two things, having fun and raising money for an extremely important program." The Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program, a joint initiative of the Dallas Bar Association and Legal Aid of NorthWest Texas, provides pro bono legal assistance to nearly 3,500 families each year. Ticket information is available at www.dbalawjam.org. For more information, contact Rhonda Reddick at 800-559-4534 or rhonda@androvett.com.
