  12. “Freddie Mac has made a point to take on our most difficult cases—they are both complex and time-intensive, and include litigation before an immigration judge.” Kathryn M. Doan CAIR Coalition Executive Director “My experience representing ‘George’ in his asylum case was so rewarding that, since then, I’ve taken on four other matters through Freddie Mac’s partnership with CAIR.” Bob Lawrence Freddie Mac Associate General Counsel

  13. Freddie Mac Legal Division’s Immigration Case Highlights since July 2016

  14. Freddie Mac’s Pro Bono Website Subcommittee “The key to the Freddie Mac Pro Bono Program is its flexibility. Freddie Mac’s leadership doesn’t just allow me to devote time and energy to the cause that I believe in, they affirmatively encourage my involvement. I have the freedom to develop this pro bono representation in a way that benefits the client and respects the passion I have for giving back.” —Colin Uckert, Freddie Mac Managing Associate General Counsel

  15. “Through the dedication and tenacity of Freddie Mac’s Legal Division, every CASA program in Virginia will now have a very clear, concise and up-to-date Records Retention Policy, with a schedule that has been vetted by the appropriate agencies at the State level. Their work has allowed me and my team to focus on the important stuff—the children in our cases—and will allow all of the CASA programs to be better.” Darcy Cunningham Fairfax CASA Executive Director

  16. Freddie Mac’s Tahirih Justice Center Team Freddie Mac’s Whitman-Walker Health Team

  17. “Our Division really lives up to that phrase: ‘for the public good.’ One example is the amazing work we’re doing for asylum applicants. Bob Lawrence has done yeoman’s work by significantly helping those in need, and I’ve learned alongside him to truly appreciate the real and very personal impact pro bono work can have on someone’s life.” Om Jahagirdar Freddie Mac Associate General Counsel

  18. “At the LSNV clinics, I enjoy talking to people in-person and completing the intake forms and being a part of a team that can help them.” Karen Johnson Freddie Mac Legal Administrative Coordinator “Freddie Mac’s Uncontested Divorce Clinic was one of the most rewarding legal experiences that I have encountered. In a short time, I was able to provide some measure of help to three very different people: a young working mother, an elderly woman, and an immigrant who relied on a Mandarin translator.” Mark Goodin Freddie Mac Associate General Counsel
