Bruce E. Bergman
Bruce E. Bergman will receive The Honorable Anthony V. DeMayo Pro Bono Award at the CBA’s annual awards celebration, Celebrate with the Stars, on Wednesday, April 20. Attorney Bergman established the Law Offices of Bruce E. Bergman in Hartford nearly 50 years ago and has practiced there for the majority of his career. Since the late 1990s, he has actively participated in Statewide Legal Services’ pro bono programs, particularly representing clients in custody, visitation matters, and divorce cases.
Attorney Bergman is being honored for his pro bono work with Statewide Legal Services. As a volunteer, he often represents clients that are distressed and experiencing significant personal and legal challenges. He has assisted numerous clients suffering from medical conditions or unsafe domestic situations who would otherwise be unable to engage with the daunting legal challenges they face.
The Honorable Anthony V. DeMayo Pro Bono Award recognizes CBA members who demonstrated dedication to the provision of legal services without expectation of payment to those in need. He is one of four attorneys receiving the award this year.
