McCarter & English, LLP invites the Essex County legal community leaders to participate in a summit with Mayor Cory Booker to discuss the campaign against violence in Newark. Mayor Booker will announce initiatives that the legal community can join in to make the city a better place for the youth of Newark.

“Our Firm, and many others in the legal community participate regularly and frequently in countless community activities--schools, charitable and religious institutions and other organizations which tackle at least some of the social issues in Newark. We share Newark’s political leadership vision and hope for continuing revival of the city our firm has called home for over 140 years. But that hope is hostage to the senseless gun violence most recently seen with the killing of three young people of real promise. It must stop,” says Andrew T. Berry, Chairman of McCarter & English, LLP.

Join us in the efforts to stop the violence.
