Marietta lawyer Erika Robinson has been chosen for a new task force on the financing of legal education, formed by the American Bar Association to address the skyrocketing cost of law school when jobs for new lawyers are in short supply.

A first-year associate at Gregory, Doyle, Calhoun & Rogers, Robinson is the only freshly minted lawyer appointed to the 14-member task force. She joined the Marietta firm’s education practice, which represents school systems, after graduating last year from the University of South Carolina School of Law.
