ADVOCACY FOR ALL
A RESOURCE FOR THOSE IN NEED

BREWER STOREFRONT HISTORY AND MISSION

Founded in 1995, the Brewer Storefront allows our unique brand of advocacy to be available to those who often do not have the resources to access a high caliber of legal representation. More specifically, the Storefront handles individual matters that often establish legal precedent and make a long-term, positive impact on the community at large.

Our firm has long believed each of our professionals should have the opportunity to make a contribution to the community through pro bono legal service, and we strive to cultivate a culture of giving back. All professionals are encouraged to participate in the Storefront – in support of the clients and communities it serves.

REPRESENTATIONS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE

As an example of its advocacy, Storefront attorneys have defeated unconstitutional “immigration ordinances”and successfully challenged election systems that were in violation of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The Storefront’s pro bono work has captured the attention of legal scholars, public policy advocates, and elected officials working to ensure that the Latino population is treated with justice, fairness, and equality.”

PRESTIGIOUS AWARDS AND RECOGNITION

The Storefront has been honored through several community service awards, including:

  • The national publication of the Pro Bono Institute, “What’s New in Law Firm Pro Bono”

  • “President’s Award” from the Dallas Hispanic Bar Association

  • Recognition at the Dallas Bar Association’s Annual Pro Bono Awards Celebration

On June 1, 2015, the Storefront was the subject of a Texas Lawyer profile story chronicling the successful eight-year campaign to challenge the unconstitutional immigration ordinances proposed in Farmers Branch, Texas.

The Storefront represented client Manuel Benavidez (pictured with William Brewer) in his successful case against the Irving Independent School District alleging the district’s prior electoral system was in violation of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
