Jennifer Foster
Practice Philosophy:
This year, upon turning 40, I decided to leave my former position as Pro Bono Coordinator for Western North Carolina to launch into political action and societal-legal change in my own practice. Most notably, I am helping to form the first statewide chapter of NORML in North Carolina. I am interested in gathering reformers surrounding medical marijuana, decriminalization, and hemp. I am also planning to launch pro se legal education projects.
