Leech Tishman Partner Sharon Barney Appointed to Pennsylvania Bar Association Joint Task Force on Continuity of Delivery of Legal Services

Posted on July 7, 2020

PITTSBURGH, PA – July 7, 2020 – Leech Tishman is pleased to announce that partner Sharon Barney was recently appointed to a one-year term as a member of the Pennsylvania Bar Association’s (PBA) Joint Task Force on Continuity of Delivery of Legal Services. Barney’s term commenced on July 6.

The mission of the Joint Task Force on Continuity of Delivery of Legal Services is to help overcome some of the challenges experienced by courts, government offices and law firms in handling the remote practice of law, remote court proceedings and other legal processes during the COVID-19 pandemic. The focus of the group is to ensure that Pennsylvania’s citizens and business community have access to the legal services they need at all times, particularly in a time of crisis. This working group will bring together representatives of the Pennsylvania Bar Association, Pennsylvania Association for Justice, Pennsylvania Defense Institute, Pennsylvania District Attorneys Association, Public Defender Association of Pennsylvania, and Pennsylvania Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers to develop recommendations to update processes and technology to enable the legal system to continue to operate under any similar emergency circumstances in the future.

Barney is a member of Leech Tishman’s Immigration and Family Law Groups. She is based in the firm’s State College office and focuses her practice in the area of immigration and family law matters. Barney regularly advises individuals and corporate clients on immigration issues and has a unique focus on the needs of international students, scholars, and research scientists. She guides corporate clients and foreign nationals on the process to obtain nonimmigrant visas, extend statuses, and ultimately permanent residence in the United States. Barney also has expertise working with entrepreneurs and start-up companies in the STEM fields and recognizes their unique challenges in hiring workers and exploring immigration and business options.
