 For over 20 years Rebecca Covell has generously given her time and talents to the Legal Hospice of Texas’ mission, which is to provide compassionate, free legal counsel, representation and advocacy to low income people who are living with HIV and the terminally ill. Through the highest of standards in service, she is the shining example of professionalism executed with unwavering spirit.

The Legal Hospice of Texas looks back on her years of service with great gratitude and look forward with joyful anticipation. They appreciate the opportunity to showcase Ms. Covell in celebration of this year’s Pro Bono Week.

Rebecca reflects on her time with Legal Hospice of Texas; “I have worked as a volunteer for the legal hospice since 1990, which is the year I started my own firm. It was important to start the habit as The Boss of giving back. I feel so blessed to be an attorney thus volunteering for the Legal Hospice of Texas is one small way to give back. It’s kind of like a karmic deposit. I urge my staff to volunteer as well.”
