In celebration of Pride Month, this event focused on providing crucial training for attorneys to assist low-income transgender, gender non-conforming, and non-binary individuals in securing legal name changes. Stefan joined Casey Bohannon from TLDEF to educate attendees on the legal process involved in this essential work. Outside of his primary corporate practice, Stefan maintains a robust pro bono practice. Since 2014, Stefan has contributed significant volunteer hours to the Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund’s (TLDEF) Name Change Project. Over the past three years, he has handled 200+ name change matters and logged more than 1,000 hours of pro bono work. In addition, Stefan has recruited and trained hundreds of lawyers and law students to assist with name changes, and in the process, helped hundreds of individuals change their legal identities and, in doing so, supported them in living as their authentic selves. A huge thank you to TLDEF for organizing this impactful session and to all the attorneys who attended and volunteered their time.
