About the Cover
The Clients’ Protection Fund (CPF) Board sponsored this issue of Virginia Lawyer and in keeping with the social distancing rules caused by the pandemic, created a cover that reflects the legal profession’s new normal. Thank you to CPF staff liaison Vivian Byrd for assisting with the issue, and welcome to incoming CPF Board Chair Peter M. Mellette. Cover art montage by Kaylin Bowen.
