He or she must also have handled at least one pro bono case, worked on legislation to provide legal services to the poor and/or made an outstanding effort to understand this segment of the audience.

At Horn & Johnsen, Attorney Dera Johnsen-Tracy has found her passion working in the areas of estate planning, probate and guardianship. She has been selected by the State Bar of Wisconsin as the recipient of the Pro Bono Attorney of the Year award based on her demonstrated commitment to providing legal services through the Wisconsin Wills for Heroes program, a free service for first responders, and for her assistance, in conjunction with the State Bar of Wisconsin, the Dane County Bar Association, the Madison College Paralegal Program, GWAAR (Greater WI Agency on Aging Resources’ Elder Law & Advocacy Center) and Community Justice Inc., in developing a free basic estate planning clinic for seniors and veterans of limited means.
