Associate honored by LSEM for pro bono client collaboration

BCLP Associate Sasha Riedisser will be honored by Legal Services of Eastern Missouri (LSEM) for her pro bono legal work at the “For The Common Good” awards event, set for Aug. 26 in St. Louis, Mo.

The annual “For The Common Good” awards honor volunteers, civic leaders and community partners whose dedication and service helps LSEM expand its mission to provide action, justice and hope to the community in need.

Sasha will be honored with The Hon. John R. Essner Young Lawyer Award. This award is in recognition of her leadership in a collaboration between BCLP, firm client Citigroup and LSEM to assist people during the pandemic with estate planning, health directives and medical powers of attorney. Other BCLP lawyers who have volunteered with Sasha include Doug Stanley, Ketrina Bakewell, Ellen Bonacorsi and Ed Tjaden.

Alongside her active pro bono practice, Sasha is a member of BCLP’s Commercial Disputes Group, with a focus on fiduciary litigation.
