Samuel Agostini will participate in Rhode Island Law Day 2026 on Friday, May 1, 2026, a program organized by the Rhode Island Bar Association that connects students with members of the legal community.

As part of Law Day, attorneys are paired with judges to visit local classrooms and engage students in discussions about civics and the legal system. This year’s theme, “The Rule of Law and the American Dream,” highlights the principle that no one is above the law and explores how legal frameworks support individual rights and opportunities.

Law Day programs are designed to provide educational insight into how the legal system functions and how it relates to everyday life.
