KPA will participate in 2010 AIDS Walk

For the 2nd year, KPA has registered a team for the AIDS Walk on October 17th to help raise funds to fight against HIV. KPA employees are proud to once again participate in this opportunity to help all the men, women and children impacted by AIDS. KPA participated in the AIDS walk for the first time in 2009 and raised enough funds to be ranked 16th out of the 1,600 teams registered.

Founding partner Shawn Khorrami is also a member of the APLA Board of Directors and will be walking with the team.

Putting its values in action is central to what makes Khorrami Pollard & Abir unique and successful as a plaintiff firm. “An essential part of our values as a firm is meaningful engagement in issues important to our firm and our profession,” says KPA founding partner Shawn Khorrami.

Press releases issued today illustrate the firm’s commitment to essential social services, and to professional development for women in plaintiff law.

Shawn Khorrami, founding partner of the firm, has been elected to the Board of Directors of AIDS Project Los Angeles (APLA), one of the largest non-profit AIDS service organizations in the country. His dedication to promoting public health and welfare is apparent not only through this accomplishment, but through his firm’s continued successes over large pharmaceutical companies who have wrongfully injured individuals across the country.

Bahar Dejban, an associate at the firm, has been named to the Board of Governors of the New Lawyers Division of the American Association for Justice (AAJ). Her dedication and role as a leader within AAJ has set precedent for other plaintiff attorneys across the country.
