Community
We take pride in our involvement with our local community. We believe in giving back to the people and area that has helped us so much. The world is still a good place, and we want to help keep it that way. We’ve also created the Giving Project and a Butler Law Scholarship.
BLACK LIVES MATTER
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then they came for the Socialists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist
Then they came for the trade unionists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist
Then they came for the Jews
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Jew
Then they came for me
And there was no one left
To speak out for me
-Martin Niemöller, 1946
LEGAL FOOD FRENZY
Butler Law Firm participated in the Ninth Annual Georgia Legal Food Frenzy, raising money for the Atlanta Community Food Bank. Georgia Legal Food Frenzy is an annual food and fund competition hosted by the State Bar of Georgia’s Young Lawyers Division (“YLD”), Attorney General Chris Carr, and the Georgia Food Bank Association. Butler Law Firm’s own Morgan Lyndall chairs the competition for the YLD. This year the competition raised over $700,000, which is over 2.8 million meals that can be distributed to families in Georgia. Butler Law Firm looks forward to participating in the competition next year and in years to come!
MY SISTER’S HOUSE

For Farrah Butler’s first birthday party, guests brought diapers and other items for donation to My Sister’s House, an Atlanta program aimed at helping women and children avoid homelessness. When they dropped everything off, Jeb and Anne also donated twenty-five backpacks from BT’s Backpack Program.

GTLA’s PARTY FOR CHILDREN'S HEALTHCARE OF ATLANTA
On December 5, 2017, the Georgia Trial Lawyers Association’s New Lawyers Division volunteered to help the Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. The theme was the famous Disney movie Frozen.
While there, GTLA members (our own Jeb Butler included) dressed up as characters from the movie and spent time with children. They danced, made delicious cookies, painted faces, and even got to have fun in a photo booth. They dedicated their evening to these children and made it a memory that no one involved will ever forget.
