November Update: Recent Article Highlights MVL Section, Plus Register for This Month’s CLE
With Veterans Day around the corner, I thought it would be timely to highlight the Military & Veterans Law (MVL) Section. The MVL Section was recently featured in Attorney at Law Magazine NC Triangle, Vol. 9, No. 4. The article highlights the work of our section and the important mission that drives our members. “When we needed them to safeguard our rights, these men and women answered the call to service. Now, it is our responsibility to protect their rights,” said Matthew Wilcut, past president of the section. Check out the full article in Attorney at Law Magazine here!
As a veteran, I am so proud to be a part of this section because of my fellow members. They are selfless legal professionals who are truly passionate about and committed to serving North Carolina’s military and veteran community. If you are interested in getting involved with the MVL Section or if you’re a legal professional who serves military members and veterans, join us on November 18 for a live webcast entitled “Helping Our Heroes: Representing Veterans Before the VA, BVA, CAVC and DoD.” This program will discuss a wide range of topics, including issues related to VA disability advocacy, military disability retirement pay, and early lease termination. This program has been approved for 7.00 MCLE hours.
Current president of the section, Patrick Wilson, reflected on the mission of the section in conjunction with the upcoming observance of Veterans Day stating, “We at the MVL especially value the occasion of Veterans Day to thank and honor those men and women in uniform who have sacrificed so much and that we take the opportunities available with the MVL to do right by them.”
