Volunteer Spotlight – Tom Prescott, Esq.
Tom Prescott, Esq.
Attorney at Law
- How long have you volunteered?
Since August 2020 following my move to Huntsville from CA.
- Why do you volunteer?
The law has been good to me in the 30+ years I have been practicing and this is my opportunity to help those who have less access to the law.
- What is your most memorable volunteer experience?
Meeting with the clients, listening to their issues, and trying to figure out a way for them to move forward. The issues are varied and it is an opportunity to really put on your thinking cap.
- What advice can you give other attorneys who are thinking about volunteering with the MCVLP?
Do not hesitate to jump right in. The practice of law, for many, has become a business with billable hours and deadlines, but this is a chance to just help someone in need of help in a way that most people cannot. It reminds you why we are attorneys.
