The law offices of Milstein Adelman began working with The Hirshberg Foundation to raise money and awareness for pancreatic cancer due to our common goals. Milstein Adelman pursues litigation against pharmaceutical products that increase the risk of pancreatic cancer. When informed of The Hirshberg Foundation’s LA Cancer Challenge, the office leapt at the chance to be involved, with 42 employees signing up to run or walk to support survivors and patients with pancreatic cancer.
Our team had personal, as well as professional connections to the cause. One of our legal assistants lost his father in 2007 and our team coordinator lost her aunt to pancreatic cancer. These experiences, as well as our drive to protect and support our clients, brought Milstein Adelman together to join the L.A. Cancer Challenge this year. Many of our participants were able to recruit donors and even family outside of the office to participate, creating a diverse team of attorneys, assistants, family and friends.
Milstein Adelman is grateful to have had the opportunity to participate in this year’s challenge to help contribute to the fight against pancreatic cancer!
