A Palm Coast attorney has been recognized for donating more than 100 hours of free legal services for the eighth year in a row.
Vincent L. Sullivan, a partner at Chiumento Law, has received the Jay Grife Pro Bono Award from St. Johns County Legal Aid. The award is presented annually to attorneys who volunteer more than 100 hours of pro bono legal service each year. Receiving the honor eight consecutive years is considered an extraordinary achievement that reflects both consistency and compassion in serving the community.
The awards were presented during a ceremony recognizing attorneys who dedicate significant time and professional skill to expanding access to justice throughout the community. The Jay Grife Pro Bono Award highlights efforts to help bridge the justice gap for people who cannot afford legal representation.
Sullivan’s volunteer legal work covers a wide range of civil matters. He has helped clients with foreclosure defense, debt collection defense, landlord tenant disputes, and other issues that directly affect vulnerable residents. Through his efforts, individuals who might otherwise go without representation are given a fair opportunity to be heard in legal proceedings.
Beyond his volunteer legal work, Sullivan is actively involved in the community. He serves on the Board of Directors for the Flagler County Education Foundation.
Michael Chiumento, Managing Partner of Chiumento Law, praised Sullivan’s achievement. He stated that Sullivan’s dedication to pro bono work reflects the core values of the firm. Chiumento said Sullivan’s compassion, professionalism, and commitment to justice continue to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
Chiumento Law congratulated Sullivan on his accomplishment and recognized all pro bono volunteers whose service strengthens the community by ensuring access to legal support for those who need it most.
