Personal injury Attorney Rick Jaklitsch is head of the nationally-acclaimed law firm The Jaklitsch Law Group in Upper Marlboro, Maryland. In addition to managing the firm, Rick Jaklitsch is also a member of the Maryland State Bar Association (MSBA).
In April 2020, the MSBA announced its partnership with the Maryland Chamber of Commerce. The announcement came at the beginning of the pandemic, and in the short run, it was intended to help businesses through the rough economic times of the past few months.
The partnership, first and foremost, was created to help businesses understand the CARES Act, Paycheck Protection Program, and the Layoff Aversion Fund, all safety nets provided to businesses across the country. Another major issue that was addressed in the partnership was the interpretation of business interruption insurance and legislation in New Jersey that would nullify pandemic-related exclusion clauses. This collaboration, according to the MSBA site, was just the beginning of a long-term effort to address economic issues related to the pandemic.
