Wiley William Manuel was the first African-American to serve on the California Supreme Court and a man whose life's work embodied the virtues of volunteer service. In his honor, the State Bar each year recognizes Californians who have offered their uncompensated time and industry in the legal profession to assisting others. The efforts of these individuals are under-appreciated by definition, but without them, CLSEPA would, quite simply, cease to function.

From the dullest paperwork to the most complex litigation, their work is essential; it is the fuel in our engine. Attorneys, law students, undergraduates, and community members young and old, are among their ranks. Though they have not asked to be recognized, their centrality to the fulfillment of our mission is such that we demand of them this opportunity.To them and to all our pro bono collaborators, we have neither time nor words to properly express our gratitude. Thank you.
