Chelsea Crawford and Anthony May, attorneys at Brown, Goldstein & Levy, attended the 2023 American Association for Justice Annual Convention in Philadelphia from July 14 to 18. The convention, which is hosted for plaintiff lawyers by plaintiff lawyers, gave AAJ members the opportunity to build connections and increase their knowledge in various legal practices and skill sets.
