The Axelrod Firm at the 2019 NAMWOLF Annual Meeting and at the NAMWOLF Driving Diversity & Leadership Conference

At The NAMWOLF Annual Meeting

At the NAMWOLF Annual Meeting in September 2019, The Axelrod Firm collected 68 signed book plates, to be inserted into coloring books we purchased to send to Colores United in Deming, New Mexico for #immigrants separated from family members at the border. 

We asked the attorneys who visited our booth to write a short note with their first names and the cities where they’re from so the children who received the books would see that lawyers around the country care for them! 
 
It's part of our “Somos Todos Familia” (We are all family) campaign.
