2021 Lawyers For Warriors Raises Over $175,000 To Lift Local Heroes

Veterans Legal Institute (VLI) proudly announces its annual fundraising event, Lawyers for Warriors, raised over $175,000 to serve Veterans in need. Military service changes a life forever, and generous supporters made sure pro bono legal services will be accessible for homeless and low-income Veterans. The hybrid virtual-in person event was held at 5:30 pm on November 8, 2021 and featured notable speakers and inspiring testimonials. All were a true reflection of the commitment to serve heroes in our communities. Wright Ford Young & Co. continued as the Title Sponsor. Special messages included Medal of Honor Recipient Jack H. Jacobs. Honorees included Law Firm of the Year – Sheppard Mullin, Veteran Advocate of the Year – Sheila-Marie Finkelstein, Community Partner of the Year – Orange County Community Foundation, Veteran of the Year – Andrea Bird-Steiner, and Attorney of the Year – Jeff Roberts.
