Megan Wall, managing attorney of St. Johns County Legal Aid said the county’s lawyers reported donating more than 1,975 hours of free legal work assisting the poor, disabled, and low-income people in the community last year
“And that is just the hours that were disclosed, so the actual number is much higher,” Wall said.
