 Bradford Jacob, lawyer and president of EPC
Consulting, LLC, has practiced law in Virginia at the
state and federal level for over two decades.
Developing an early interest in commercial law and
EPC contract negotiations, attorney Bradford Jacob
completed his undergraduate education in business
and his law degree at the University of Richmond in
Virginia.
Recognized as one of the top-ranking law schools in
the nation by the Princeton Review, the University of
Richmond School of Law has maintained a long-
standing commitment to educating students in all
aspects of the legal profession, including ethical
conduct and community responsibility.
 As stated by the American Bar Association charter, the
purpose of pro bono service is to “promote justice and to
make justice equally accessible to all people,” a duty that
is carried out by the Harry L. Carrico Center for Pro Bono
Service.
Children are the most vulnerable population both inside
and outside of the courtroom. Recognizing that they
deserve to be heard and responsibly represented, the
University Of Richmond School Of Law maintains an
ongoing partnership with Court Appointed Special
Advocates (CASA) for Children of Central Virginia. As
volunteers, law students engage directly with the juvenile
court system and represent the best interests of children
until they are placed in permanent housing.
 Although a law degree is not a prerequisite
for volunteers, the unique skillset possessed
by law students is an invaluable asset in
stopping the cycle of child abuse and
placing victims in safe housing.
Established by Judge Dale Harris in 1989,
CASA of Central Virginia is a 501(c)(3)
nonprofit and is recognized by the National
Court Appointed Special Advocate
Association. To learn more about volunteer
opportunities and eligibility requirements,
go to www.cvcasa.org/.
