Also attending was Burg Simpson trial lawyer Ronda Kelso.

The gala included dancing, a silent auction, and some casino fun!  All proceeds from the 2020 Barristers’ Ball silent auction, raffle, and live auction go the Maricopa County Bar Foundation to support their mission of access to justice, as well as diversity in the legal profession through the Michael D. Ryan Diversity Scholarship Award.

The Mission of the Maricopa County Bar Foundation is to support the justice-related public service and educational activities of the Maricopa County Bar Association and other organizations, and to support local pro bono legal service providers that serve low-income residents of Maricopa County.

Burg Simpson was proud to be a sponsor of the Maricopa County Bar Association Barrister Ball.
