⚖️ Pro Bono Week Volunteer Spotlight: Alex McDonald A record from decades ago shouldn’t stand in the way of someone’s future.
For Alex McDonald, an Associate at Jones Day, volunteering with Georgia Justice Project is an opportunity to help people overcome barriers that can follow them long after their involvement with the legal system. Through GJP’s record restriction and sealing work, Alex helps clients navigate legal processes that can make a meaningful difference in their ability to secure employment, housing, and greater stability. What keeps him coming back? The gratitude of the clients he serves and the opportunity to work alongside GJP’s dedicated staff. Alex’s experience has reinforced just how challenging the record-clearing process can be and how valuable legal assistance is for individuals seeking a second chance. 🎾 Beyond the courtroom: Alex enjoys playing tennis with an ALTA team out of Bitsy Grant and serving as a youth group leader for ninth and tenth graders at First Presbyterian Church of Atlanta. Thank you, Alex, for sharing your time, legal expertise, and commitment to helping Georgians move forward! #ProBonoWeek #VolunteerSpotlight #AccessToJustice #SecondChancesSee it on Instagram ↗
