‘Team Berger Kahn’ Autism Walk Team to be Led by Partner Lance LaBelle

To raise awareness for Walk Now for Autism Speaks Orange County, Berger Kahn, a law office in Irvine, was inspired to form ‘Team Berger Kahn,’ under the leadership of Team Captain and Berger Kahn Principal Lance LaBelle, who has taken a personal interest in autism. The OC Autism Walk is October 13, 2012 at The Irvine Great Park at 6990 Marine Way in Irvine, CA.

A community sponsor of the OC Walk, Berger Kahn, will host blue-themed hors d’oeuvres, with a percentage of proceeds benefitting the OC Autism Walk, at 6ix Park Grill at the Irvine Hyatt on November 8, 2012 from 5:30-7:00 pm featuring speaker Andrew Hain, a 20-year old college student with Autism Spectrum Disorder.

Says LaBelle, “We have a goal inviting and inspiring the whole Berger Kahn network to join in support of those with special needs in our community.”
