On June 6, 2017, the Philadelphia Association of Defense Counsel, one of the oldest local defense organization in the country (now in its 70th year), awarded the 2017 Joseph H. Foster Young Lawyer Award to Hillary Ladov, a coverage and commercial litigator in Wade Clark Mulcahy, LLP’s Philadelphia office. The award is given to a “young lawyer who best exemplifies the qualities of professionalism and dedication as defense counsel in the practice of law and in the promotion of the highest ideals of justice in the community”. Hillary received the award in recognition of her quality legal work as well as her pro bono work with non-profits, low-wage workers, and Jewish graduate students in Philadelphia as well as her service to the Philadelphia Bar Association. A donation will be made by the PADC to Hillary’s designated charity.
