Goodsill Supports VLSH at the Taste of Justice Thank You Pau Hana

On September 18, a team of Goodsill attorneys gathered at Café Julia to support Volunteer Legal Services Hawai‘i (VLSH) during 9th Annual Taste of Justice Thank You Pau Hana and Silent Auction.

 The evening was both a celebration and a moment of recognition. Chief Justice Mark Recktenwald, who will retire at the end of the month, was honored for his many years of leadership and his steadfast support of access to justice initiatives across the state. Family Law Attorney Manmeet “Manu” Rana was also recognized for his outstanding volunteer service with VLSH.

Goodsill has a longstanding partnership with VLSH. Partners David Hoftiezer and Jennifer Chin serve on the VLSH Board, and our firm is a proud pro bono partner, staffing a monthly clinic to provide legal services to those in need.

We were pleased to have a strong showing at the event, with attendees including Goodsill Associates Erin Dung, Vasana Chiu, Ryan Fletcher; and Partners Forest Jenkins, Russell Kato, Christopher St. Sure, Wayne Wagner, Ed Saffery, Rosemarie Sam, David Hoftiezer, and Jennifer Chin.
