Join us again for DC/Baltimore Unveiled! We have partnered with clients and friends to research African American Civil War veterans from the DC and Baltimore areas. The results from our research will be displayed around our firm and in the buildings of some of our clients to foster continued curiosity and help answer questions about our beloved communities. Register today to save your seat for what promises to be an even bigger celebration than before!
